Question

The new phenomenon or form of cyber "entertainment" called ______ involves the use of spoofing technology to call 911 in order to fake a critical emergency, such as a hostage situation, that draws a real-life response from law enforcement.

Answer 1

I would simply say "prank calls," but considering the "law enforcement" part, I'd say the answer is called swatting.

Answer 2

Swatting

Step-by-step explanation:

Swatting is the newly hardcore prank done by a few people where they fake a critical emergency, using different layers of spoofing in a certain location and sending Swat and other defense and law enforcement agencies to a certain location where the pranked person is. It started as a prank but became a serious security problem when an adolescent sent Swat into the house of a complete stranger by mistake and he ended up being killed inside his own house.
