minus-squareNotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoIt’s possible to doxx the agents committing crimes though. You don’t know who they are with their masks on when they commit the crimes. And well, that should be expected unless you want them to get away with crimes, in which case the criminality just goes up the chain.
