Hundreds of netizens have shared their thoughts on Nina Lin's alleged actions, with one suggesting that Target "needs to press charges."

"@Target needs to press charges in order for @Twitch to do anything. They see her doing the crime, but being convicted in the court of public opinion isn't enough. She needs to be recorded in the system as having done a crime, then Twitch can be like "okay, she did a crime"" X user @Kintsurugi posted.
