Heh, welcome to the internet where the perpetrator and the beneficiary can be in different jurisdictions that make enforcement on the original bad actors impossible.

For example, have a friend in China upload something terrible to a UK site and then 'drop the dime' to a regular in the UK. The UK state can easily come after you and find it nearly impossible to go after the international actor.
