on the rise of social media-related crime across the United States, then-Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey stated that the department had been caught off-guard by these episodes, some of which were organized days in advance, because authorities were “not routinely viewing social media sites.
Although a Philadelphia police spokesperson did not respond to questions about the exact nature of their efforts, Levinson-Waldman said some law enforcement officers now use undercover accounts, as well as software that allows them to sift through large amounts of data, such as locations, names, and hashtags.
On Tuesday, some appeared to expect a repeat of the mass demonstrations that followed the 2020 police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, and strained police responses to criminal activity. This time, that didn’t materialize.
