You have been arrested?
Turns out I had been trolled.
The Vigilanteh had used ShrtURL, a platform
Time magazine described as the most dangerous website in America , to create a spoof article.
I was being mistaken for a much more humorous, much more creative and much more infamous Singaporean who was now supposedly behind bars for online vigilantism.
I was not amused. I called the police.
Teh tarik-drinking Vigilanteh or Choson Exchange volunteer?
After being suitably distressed, and being reminded that I was unimportant enough for anyone to care about after a few days, the incident got me thinking about the nature of media in today’s wired world.

It s late at night and you re hankering for a quick snack. Where to? The kitchen, of course. For most of us, this is a pretty mundane, uneventful task to complete.
But for Singaporean Facebook user Xin Xun Ying, it was clear that his trip to the kitchen would be met with one huge obstacle.
What obstacle, you ask? A glass door.
In a series of videos posted on Facebook on December 27, 2020, Ying shows everyone what he went through, or rather, what he tried to go through, on his way to the kitchen. And thanks to the power of CCTV, we can all revel in other people s physical pain together.
