The standard of evidence before publically outing someone needs to be a #### of a lot stronger than a video of after the fact altercation.
Sure, someone on video doing something clearly egregious, if you think the appropriate response is to inter-mob some idea of justice, have at it. I’ll disagree most of the time. But honestly, you think a he said/she said argument between two people is worthy of the eternal consequences of face and name ID? Mob justice is disgusting and lacks any standard of law 99.9% of the time.

The law only concerns itself with legal ramifications. While I agree that “mob justice” re:internet outing doesn’t meet legal standards, the results are also not law-related, so it doesn’t matter.
