Like this is normalizing a new type of abuse. And so I think a lot of people really resonated with that message. And I remember I was getting my nails done And all of a sudden, I didn't even know I had another inbox on TikTok, but I was on TikTok looking at other inbox, which is like messages that sometimes they filter.

And we ended up like going on this, we got like a dossier that had, I want to say 17, 18, 19 different data points. I brought in another security firm. Like we all basically tracked down like via social media, via the names we were given. And there were so many connections because anytime you do something on the internet, like you're just not hidden.

And, like, you know, he made mistakes years ago. There was an 8chan post with him. A what? An 8chan. It's like 4chan, but, like, this message board where people put, like, crazy theories and memes and cultural things.

We were able to track and we ended up in front of his parents' home with the red Mitsubishi, like all sorts of crazy investigation went into it. And we tried to reach out to him many, many times. He wouldn't answer. He took down all his social media. We reached out to friends and family. And then finally we said, let's go, let's try to find him and talk to him in person.

I found out he worked as a pharmacist in a hospital, like helping people. I found out that he was the man that had really helped create this site that enabled so much, I would say, digital abuse against women. Had a wife. He had a new baby. Like, he was really living a double life. And we showed up outside the hospital.

We were able to call the floor he worked on, figure out exactly when his shift was starting. We were there the next day, and we confronted him. And so it's been a pretty wild journey just to say we shouldn't live in a world where this type of thing is enabled. And it's interesting because... When we confronted him, I knew we would have 30 seconds.
