Comic site shotgunshuffle.com was forced offline [shotgunshuffle.com] by repeated attacks against the family of the comic creator. After the comic artist's wife got into streaming a number of people started to harass the family which included the wife being arrested by the police in front of their children for no good reason. In the US this type of crime is on the rise as it is easy to inflict on victims and hard to prosecute. When the comic artist's wife was arrested the police admitted that they believe the report against her was false but had to go through the motions. The end result is that all of the content and online presence for the family has been removed from the internet.

It could be you next. What would you do if your online business and your family in real life was targeted like this?
