And we can fix that problem by using wide-reaching and invasive surveillance that allows the police to de-anonymize anyone once they get the go-ahead.

But that's probably (definitely) a terrible thing to do, so maybe it's better to find other ways to solve these problems.

Parent and me were talking about hardcore cases. There is no technological solution for people stubbornly following you everywhere and sending death threats.

Furthermore, from some anecdotal evidence, I think most victims in such cases already know who is harassing them.
