The Largest Snitch List on The Internet and You Can Contribute
The largest snitch list on the internet is one that anyone can contribute to. Have you ever had the misfortune of going about your daily life only to find yourself confronted by a police officer? Maybe you get a ticket, maybe you go to jail, maybe you post bail, or maybe you don’t. In the worst case scenario you find yourself behind bars wonder how you got there. You know you broke the law or maybe you didn’t but they insist they have something on you. Then eventually your lawyer comes to see you with discovery and there it is. Proof of how the cops zeroed in on you. Proof that somebody you know told on you. What can you do about it? Legally, not much, but recently a service has launched to help you warn others before they too share your fate.
The Police Informant Database at CopBlaster.com is a user generated collection of data profiling over 10,000 informants, witnesses, jailhouse rats, security guards, and everyday cop callers. Many of the names are provided by users like you that sign up for a free membership and fill out a form that lets you name names, upload paperwork, pictures, and tell your story complete with embedded videos and a map to their location. A well written article with their name in the title is likely to show up whenever people Google them and when they see it they will know to keep their mouths shut around them without letting them see or know what they are doing.
More than just accusations posted by people online. Most of the snitches named on the site at this time actually came from government records. This past spring advocacy groups fighting stay at home orders used public records requests to acquire unredacted data submitted to government agencies through online forms setup to solicit tips about social distancing violations. The Coronavirus Snitch Lists were parsed into posts and are also available in PDF and Excel formats.
