Dogpiling (Internet)
Dog-piling, or a dog-pile is a form of online harassment[1] or online abuse characterized by having groups of harassers target the same victim. Examples of online abuse include flaming, doxing (online release of personal information without consent), impersonation, and public shaming.[2][3] Dog-pilers often focus on harassing, exposing, or punishing a target for an opinion that the group does not agree with, or just simply for the sake of being a bully and targeting a victim.[3] Participants use criticism and/or insults [3][4][5] to target a single person.[6] In some definitions, it also includes sending private messages.[7]
History
Today, the use of dog-pile is most popular in terms of the internet in the form of online harassment. For example, the term dog-piling is used in reference to the Gamergate harassment campaign.[8][9][10]
