Online environments are full of potential dangers that unfortunately affect video games. For this reason, the Danish police have a special department that fights crime through popular online titles.
We refer to the Police Online Patrol, whose members learned to play Fortnite, Call of Duty: Warzone, Minecraft and more online titles that criminals have used in the past to make their own. Their goal is to keep younger players safe and prevent potential crimes.

This is the police who fight crime thanks to video games
Members of the Danish Police Online Patrol play various online games to detect potential crimes in online environments, such as fraud, child bullying and hate attacks. According to the details, the group plays custom avatars as policemen.
Of course, they also have a good time, so they occasionally stream on Twitch and share some of their best moments on social networks. Over the years, we have seen cases of bullying, harassment and even identity theft, problems that have mainly affected young players.
Online games bring together millions of people from all over the world, but they are also a space for people who carry out criminal activities. Sometimes the security measures and policies of the companies are not enough to keep users safe, so this work of the police has attracted the attention of many.
Police Online Patrol began operations in April 2022 and has had a presence on major player platforms like Steam, Discord, and Twitch ever since. Its members also work to prevent inappropriate behavior among children and adolescents who enjoy video games.
