Often, when judges try to make the punishment fir the crime they come up with medieval humiliations that clearly reach into cruel and unusual punishment, but this one sounds spot on. People who hurt and humiliate others just to get fodder for videos should be humiliated on the very medium they chose.
Kids commit nasty prank, judge makes them famous.
That's gonna be a great deterrent, I'm sure.
