ISPs have started getting more threatening about tormenting, though. Instead of sending threatening letters/emails that no one reads, some are now temporarily blocking service until you access a captive portal that makes you acknowledge the notice. Probably mostly because the media companies bought up most of the ISPs, in the US at least.

Yes but the average teenager is less tech savvy than the 00s

I had a bit of a reverse situation where ATT didn’t tell me I was receiving complaints until they bulk uploaded like 40 into their compliance portal.
ISPs have been tormenting the planet for years, now.
