First of all he's not asking for advice from lawyers or police for people going after Brie, but people calling and texting him.
Edit his quote: “I’ve been texted and crank called kind of relentlessly over the past couple of days,” said Levi. “I tried to reason with these people, but now, I’d like to prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.”
I didn't know the legalities of calling and texting someone constantly if you ask them to stop. Especially if no threats are expressed during the call.
I looked it up if Zachary lives in California it is illegal to constantly call or text someone without threats.
California Penal Code section 653(m)(b) makes it a misdemeanor to make annoying phone calls. The charge carries up to 6 months in the county jail. The elements of the crime are: 1) that you made repeated phone calls to the individual, 2) that you intended to annoy them at their residence, 3) conversation may or may not have ensued from the calls (in other words it doesn't mean that either party actually had to say anything), and 4) the phone call was not made in good faith.
Now is this the appropriate way to deal with this? I'd say not, but technically if they are calling and texting him without good faith of a conversation and constantly doing it they are breaking the law.

So these trolls turned on Zak Levi after he tried to calm the situation down. Poor Zach, he was only trying to make things better but made it worse. If they are crank calling him and interfering in his personal life then he has every right to call the cops.
Who are these trolls anyway. Are they dc fans, mcu fans or just the anti-sjw diehards crowd who dont actually care about the genre

When I started the thread on DCEU board asking if he was going to be put on the shit list too. I kind of figured he would get some backlash. I figured videos, tweets, or "essays/articles", but I didn't think it would go to people calling and texting his personal number.

They don't need an ideology or reason just a target. edit: prolly some ideological ones too, but I find those are just trolls that justify their actions

I think its the trolls who are being brainwashed by far right wing media of how anti-white sentiment is creeping into Society and pop culture that are taking things this far. They arnt fans of comics or superhero genre, they just hate the liberal elite socialists like Larson and now Levi.

I'm conservative fiscally and socially liberal, but the rise of Right-Wing Terrorism in the last 10-15 years scares the shit out of me. I almost see internet trolling as the gateway drug to that rise.

Ok, so we boycott Shazam. At least we’ll be able to see {sigh} Dark Phoenix.

By making the video yeah he is standing up for himself, but escalating the situation. Maybe that's what he wanted. Maybe something good will come out of the escalation by making more pissed off trolls redouble their efforts and he catches more. I don't know. Me personally would've contacted the police/lawyers privately then after the trolls were caught come out and say it. Different Tacts for different people. I'm not a public personality either, so maybe taking the active approach is better. Not my world, I suppose.

I remember call centers bugging the hell out of me and I wished back then I could have called the cops on them. So I definitely sympathize with Zak here.

That is annoying. But this does get the Hollywood hack writer part of my brain going. Like there's a good satirical thriller to be made about actors and overly aggressive fandoms doing stuff like this. Something like The Fan except De Niro is wearing an Avengers costume.
