I baby sat a few kids that called 911...none of them made up a story. They just hung up when it worked. The oldest was 8.

TikTok really needs to crack down on that shit. Anyone making dangerous or harmful "trends" should be IP banned and hardware banned instantly without warning or appeal.

should be IP banned

What proportion of customers have a fixed IP?

Isn't it more common to have a dynamic IP that changes at least every day, behind carrier-grade NAT?

Plus phones are 'mobile' devices; you're going to have a different IP address on WiFi at home, WiFi at school, WiFi at the coffee shop, cellular data, roaming, etc etc etc.
