All I'm seeing is a bunch of threads with OP freaking out, but deflining to offer any evidence.

Allegedly the original op got their computer bricked or got swat'd

I saw jokes about swatting, but nothing to suggest it had actually happened.
If the Huffpo website were actually doing this to people, don't you think we'd have heard more than just one or two channers?
