investigations into Discord, Twitch, 4chan and 8chan over concerns they let the attacker"discuss and amplify" his plans. It was"chilling and unfathomable" that the shooter could post his intentions months in advance without facing consequences, James said.
The perpetrator reportedly talked about his plans for racism-fuelled violence on Discord, 4chan and 8chan. He tried to livestream the entire attack on Twitch. The service took down the shooter's channel within two minutes and has clamped down on attempts to reshare the video, but that didn't stop others from trying to distribute the video on Facebook, Twitter and other platforms.
