I find this and similar stories to be strange. If a person calls a Federal judge on the phone to threaten them then law enforcement should take it seriously. Right?
“Seriously” here means a full and complete investigation. Subpoenas to phone companies, ISPs, web site operators and anyone else involved. Arrest them. Extradite them. Interrogate them. The works. And do this each and every time.
It’s bizarre to me that a person making a phone call, or whatever, like this wouldn’t be swiftly arrested and face years in Federal prison. Their life should basically be over. So, what’s going on here?
I don't believe these people would often have the technical ability to effectively hide their identity. Is it much easier to have flawless opsec than I might have thought?
(While it might be hard to argue in court that the pizza thing constitutes an actual threat, other examples in the article are simple, straightforward threats.)

"In 2022, Congress passed a law named after Daniel Anderl allowing judges to sue internet sites to take down identifying information."
Everyone should be able to have their information taken down. Not just judges.
