Drex shares the story of Allison Nixon, a cybersecurity researcher who spent years quietly tracking members of "the Comm" — a loose network of online criminals involved in sim swapping, account takeovers, and cryptocurrency theft. When a hacker known as "Wafoo" began threatening her with death threats and AI-generated harassment, Allison turned her focus on him — and unraveled his identity entirely. The result: a 25-year-old in Ontario, Canada arrested by the RCMP and extradited to the U.S. The takeaway? Anonymity online is rarely as solid as criminals believe, and threatening the wrong researcher only accelerates your own exposure
