Police are on site at Plus High School since 8:30 am this morning, to ward off trouble as was expected.
Some streets around the high school in central Gothenburg, is currently closed to cars, buses and trams. All of the police horses, dogs and piketen is in place and will use buses to transport away people who interfere.
- We begin to seize people and removed a large number, said Bjorn Blixter.
An eyewitness, who did not participate in the demonstration, told Aftonbladet that the situation at the school has begun to derail.
- Protesters kicked down lampposts and jumping on cars. They go berserk, says Antonio Raunegger, 44.
At half past one said police spokesman Björ Blixter that the police had trouble dealing with the turmoil.
- It does not feel like we have the situation under control right now, he says.
It all started yesterday, when the account was started on Instagram, where underage girls and boys from Gothenburg where hung out with the name, image and alleged sexual activity.
The followers of the account were invited to contribute with "grouse (orrar in Swedish)", a slang for sluts, to hang out via the chat application KIK, and were promised anonymity. The rumor of account spread like wildfire. Over 200 images were placed on the young called "whores," "sluts" and "grouse" and claimed to have had sex with other named persons. One of the youths was only 13 years old.
- It grew to 7000-8000 followers.
some was the younger siblings of my friends, born in 1997 and up, that were hung out, says a 22-year-old man in Gothenburg to Aftonbladet.
After a few hours was also screenshots up from the KIK chat, which revealed the identity of the tipers.
This escalated during the night and led to chaos and threats of violence in the commentary boxes.
In each picture, there was over a hundred angry comments, many said they had reported to the police.
Before the account was shut down a message was sent out that it would shut down, because of those who where hung out threatened with suicide.
- It is terrible. Students will not dare to go to school. It is particularly embarrassing at this age. Whoever started this wanted chaos. I think this will lead to violence, says the 22-year-old.
On facebook a young girl is hung out as the person who created the Instagram account.
[b]Prompt: "Beat her"[/b]
A Facebook group has been formed where people are asked come together to beat her at a given time during the morning today at Plus High School where she is said to go.
A new group with the same name as the Instagram account has also started on Facebook - where the accusations continues.
Principal Lotta Krus the Plus High School knows what is going on.
- The most important is the students' safety. Questions about the fights and threats is a matter for the police and we are working closely with the police right now, she says to Aftonbladet.
Aftonbladet have searched Facebook, which also owns Instagram, for comment.

Apperently it has now reached Nordstan which is Gothenburgs largest shopping mall.
Also, all of the things that happened with the Instagram account happened within the last 12 hours (including getting the number of followers).
According to this tweet three persons who where hung out on Instagram have commited suicide: [url]https://twitter.com/kenzyjohansson/status/281024384737624064[/url]

I'm not sure, the translation isnt great, but from what I can gather basically someone got loads of underage girls to do stuff on webcam for them promising it would be anonymous, took pictures, then named and shamed them on instagram.
I don't really understand who is rioting and why, though.
Banga list with pictures and names of partners or something on instagram.

No, the webcam chat was for people contributing photo's.

Kicked down lampposts? That's pretty impressive.
1. A bunch of people start rumours about other people.
2. The rumour starters get outed.
3. The victims get pissed.

I dont get it. So basically, followers contributed nude webcam photos then the owner/followers used them to fake name and shame people they dont like?
Also what does it have to do with riots? I dont understand why people would start rioting in the streets because of an instragram account.

Sorry about that, just ran it through google translate and fixed up a couple of things.
Someone who (apparently) goes to the Plus high school created an instagram account and asked people to tell her about people who, to them where "whores" and such in the Gothenburg area. This was then posted on instagram with picture, name, age and sexual act of this person. This then escalated when the account got about 8000-9000 followers and more and more tips got sent to this person who also "forgot" to censor the one who sent in the tips, and threats where thrown around in the comment fields. It seems like the same person also created a Facebook group in the same spirit as the Instagram account.
Apparently someone found out who created the Account and told people to abuse her at a certain time today.
What i would guess happened was that those to told whomever made the account got the shit beaten out of them with the person who created the account, all of this then escalated when the police showed up etc, etc.
[QUOTE=Cushie;38876430]I dont get it. So basically, followers contributed nude webcam photos then the owner of the account started claiming they photos of random teenage girls?

What? It doesn't say that anywhere. The owner started posting pictures of girls (doesn't anywhere say they're nude so I'm going to assume they were not), stating they're sluts and whom they've had sex with. Then other people started contributing and they made a KIK chat to chat together. Someone then posted a screenshot of that chat on the instagram thing they were all contributing to, revealing the identities of the contributors.

What is wrong with people? You're trying to make a point? LETS ATTACK RANDOM PEOPLE!

The whole event is just very bizarre, I can't quite grasp how it can evolve like this...

This is great fun.
It's just a bunch of kids who have gotten to taste the "power" that you get when you're in a big group.
So he's being Hunter Moore? Good for him, what Hunter does is hilarious.
I had someone explain this to me
1: someone started an instagram account, posting pictures of so so called sluts, boy and girls ages 13 and up
2: people could submit, annonmously and add what sort af sexual acvts they have done and with whom
3: the names of the people who sent in pictures and info and the girl who started it all got out
4: now everyone is pissed
"Orrar"? Never heard that one before. I think they intended to go for "horor" which is basically the same word.

Even the girls themselves had a laugh.
What i think is funny is that all of this is completely ridiculous and pointless.
So much chaos with police and officials everywhere. Was a traffic accident as well on my way home.
I find it really funny though :v:

The majority of people in this lynching riot are immigrants.
Most Swedes would not react the way these people do. You know how reserved Swedes are.
