Videos of malicious pranks at establishments like restaurants and other eateries have been spreading on X. A prominent case that went viral in Japan several years ago involved a high school student (at the time) at a nationwide conveyor belt sushi chain, Sushiro. He licked tea cups and soy sauce dispensers, among other things, and uploaded a video of his actions to social media. When influencers on X blew it up, the store, the student’s name, and even their high school were identified in no time. The clip was amplified very quickly and he was doxxed. The very next day, Sushiro’s customer numbers plunged, and, though the exact link wasn’t clear, the company’s share price also collapsed, inflicting huge social and economic damage.
Later, the student and their parents apologized to Sushiro, but the company, saying it would “take strict measures,” effectively rejected the apology. A few days after that, the student is said to have voluntarily withdrawn from school. There’s no justification for the student’s behavior: they ought to compensate the store for its losses in good faith and, above all, reflect deeply on their actions.
Yet the posts about this incident were flooded with vitriolic comments such as “Don’t ever enter society again,” “Their parents are criminals, so they couldn’t possibly feel remorse,” and “Serves them right.” Tens of thousands of anonymous users ganged up online to savage a single minor who hadn’t even reached adulthood; what’s the difference between that and bullying or a collective lynching? This is not limited to this case; in Japan more broadly, victims of such online mobs end up marked by permanent “digital tattoos,” making it extremely difficult for them to find jobs or change careers.

You can safely delete the phrase "(at the time)."

You used "he" in the previous sentence. For consistency, you might consider using "his" here as well; the same applies to all further instances of "they" or "their".

MY GUESS: When influencers on X blew it ucovered that clip, the store, the student’s name, and even their high school were identified in no time. MY GUESS: When influencers on X covered that clip, the store, the student’s name, and even their high school were identified in no time.

NOTE: The phrase "blew it" is confusing. Perhaps you mean "covered that clip."

The clip was amplified very quickly and he was doxxed.
