> DIT: and as another bit of random trivia the guy who invented QWK format died of a heart attack after being swatted by an 18 year old who was after his @Tennessee twitter username.

That username should be permanently retired and the 18 year old prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for crimes which the law would or could hold him or her accountable.

The swatter got 5 years in prison. The maximum allowed by law. https://krebsonsecurity.com/2021/07/serial-swatter-who-cause...

Only got 5 years for that and a number of other similar harassment related incidents.
