The act of enforcing a 'suitable punishment' on a person or group of people through digital means (social media etc.) for, what the enforcer(s) believe to be, a dishonourable act.
In some cases, the 'punishment' can have negative effects on the person outside of the digital space.
"Did you hear about what happened to that one actress recently?"
"You mean the one that got outed for harassing her colleagues?"
"Yep. That's the one. Some people managed to find video evidence, leaked them, and even sent them directly to brands she's partnered with. A few of them are publicly cutting off their deals with her because of the backlash."
"About damn time digital justice was served."
