> I wonder how this "troll" was "traced". Specially trained Twitter-hound? You don't just "trace" people on the internet.

Look up Kurt Eichenwald. He found and sued an anonymous Twitter troll who send him a GIF "you deserve a seizure" in 2017. I'm not sure exactly how, I think the authorities helped him, so Twitter just might've gave them the information.
