I keep seeing videos lately of grown men posing as children online and baiting individuals to public spaces and either assaulting them or recording/exposing them for content. While I don’t mind the idea of a predator being outed, the idea of grown adults posing as children online seems unsavory to me. Especially if their end goal isn’t to protect children, and is to provide content for views.

Obviously, being a child predator is wildly immoral and illegal and their actions are not what’s being debated.

    I know someone personally that was outed by a YouTube channel. Guy was definitely in the wrong, I think he was 24 chatting up a “15” yo, maybe even “14”? The guy has a slew of mental health issues including schizophrenia. He definitely should be in trouble, and not allowed to use the Internet. My point is, it was really awful for his family when he was outed. Definitely real.
