Your time is UP, Kiwi Farms. The Great LonDini is on the case.
In a few words, The Great LonDini is a fat middle aged man on Tik Tok who has taken a vow to personally rid the internet of bullies, racists, trolls, and pedos. He claims to be a former U.S. Marine, ethical hacker, and to have the help of an expert team of cybersecurity professionals. In an obvious ape of the anonymous fad, he maintains that LonDini is a movement, not a person. Anyone can be a LonDini, just buy one of his painted plastic masks for a cool $105.00 (yes, really), and start sending threats to the employers of those damn, dirty trolls!
This "movement" has resulted in a wave of copycat doxers and vigilante harassment on Tik Tok. By The Great LonDini's own admission, members of the LonDini movement have been caught doxing innocents because their names were similar to that of a bully, which he denounces. Of course, a special place in the very large and intimidating LonDini movement is reserved for him- LonDini Leader. He calls himself Leo, but his name is Lonnie. He's no stranger to fucking things up, either. He has, for one, been caught endorsing a hate crime hoax for clout.
How he sees himself vs. What he actually looks like
Like all great heroes of the age, "Leo" has an origin story. A friend's autistic child was the subject of online bullying. Lonnie tried to set up a tiktok and fight the haters, but he was too slow and unfamiliar with social media. His young friend tragically took their own life- killed by Internet trolls! Lonnie vowed to never let such a thing happen again. He donned the mask and edgy leather jacket, and contacted elite cybersecurity professionals to form a team. Quickly tracking down seven of the bullies and contacting their parents, Lonnie got responses in two out of seven cases, and thereby found closure.
After making his initial busts on Tik Tok users who said mean things, his account rocketed to almost 3 million followers before he was tragically banned by administrators for violent extremism, endangering children, and bullying/harassment.
He managed to secure a local news story from Fox 5 D.C. which uncritically repeats his most absurd claims, like that he has a team of 20 of the world's greatest cybersecurity experts at his back. In Fox's interview, Lonnie admits that all he does is chide people on Tik Tok or look up their public profiles and contact their employers demanding that they be fired. He then demonstrates that he has no idea what he's doing by claiming he's able to find someone's username on sites like 4chan or Minecraft and find incriminating evidence there.
Hilarious Fox 5 Feature
BBC Interview (Less Funny)
According to Lonnie, he has made new accounts and been re-banned nine times at this point. But that hasn't stopped him from fighting the good fight:
davidduke6969 is now most likely in hiding after being exposed like this. The current iteration of the LonDini Tik Tok has over 5 million children following it.
After his return to the site, he was again featured in the news, this time by Vice, an organization which at one point was savvy enough to understand exactly why LonDini is so hilarious, but now just uncritically repeats his claims like the local Fox reporters did. He brags that he's gotten children expelled from school over their Tik Tok comments, and that his ultimatums to schools, parents, and employers have a whopping 40% reply rate. Lonnie, despite previously admitting he had little knowledge of social media, claims he has been working in the cybersecurity industry for over 20 years. It should be noted he frequently has friends/family pose for him wearing masks in his videos, and it is all but confirmed that these are the same people as his "elite cybersecurity team".
Hilarious Vox Special
Before the Vox video, few people had heard of him outside of Tik Tok, but now he is being discovered and mocked by the Internet at large.
Hang in there, big guy.
Hands off the man's wholesome ranch videos, or CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!
Based Lonnie?
DOX:
Forum user @VideoCD doxed LonDini. Get bent, script kiddy.
STOLEN VALOR:
Lonnie claims in this video for his official fan meet and greet in Florida that he's a 3-tour combat veteran and twice the recipient of the purple heart, which is an award granted for sustaining an injury in combat- so he's clearly a badass war veteran.
Except he's lying. From his dox, we know he did IT work for the Marines in the years running up to 9/11. The only combat deployments the Marines saw in this time period were in Kosovo, which saw a very small number of troops deployed with no major fighting and almost zero casualties. Lonnie is lying about his service record. He probably has no combat experience whatsoever, and certainly not two injuries in the line of duty.
DRAMA:
Info has been coming forward from former LonDini members and prominent accounts on Tik Tok revealing a "movement" which is reprehensible and incompetent, beyond what could have been expected. The allegations include:
- Lonnie pretending to be black in the past for clout
- Lonnie being misogynistic to a woman on his livestream
- Lonnie taking credit for exposing trolls that in reality he had been unable to track down
- Lonnie taking credit for exposing trolls that other people had tracked down
- Lonnie doxing innocent kids
- Lonnie not even knowing what a VPN was
- Lonnie paying people to do the doxing for him
- Lonnie doxing an innocent person, then extorting them to get their dox taken down
- Discord mod being blacklisted because being a victim of domestic violence was considered a liability by LonDini
- Said discord mod being insulted for his homosexuality and only being made a mod in the first place to be a token gay member
- Keeping a blacklist of people whose posts they mass report to get taken down
- LonDini members shielding a creepy dude hitting on a woman in the group
It's hard to say if all of these accusations are true, but it is clear that most of them are. In response to all this, (which has been referred to as "The Great LonDrama" by Tik Tokers) Lonnie didn't apologize, or address the matter publicly at all. Instead, he (along with his discord mods) used a garbage NDA he made them sign along with other personal info he collected from their Patreon subscriptions and discord accounts that they had trusted him to keep private, in order to send them legal threats. Any public record of the messed up shit Lonnie and his boys are running will be met with the threat of legal action for supposed violation of an NDA. Of course, not all of the people sharing info of what happened are inner members of the group that Lonnie already had dox on, so he's had his discord mods compile a spreadsheet of their own members that have interacted with the supposed NDA-violators, and are attempting to get dox on all of them. That's right, Lonnie is trying to collect dox on his own members so that he can bully them into staying silent with the threat of stripping their anonymity. Tik Tok user dinkumoil even managed to get out screenshots of the NDA they make their members sign, and the spreadsheet which they've been using to dox their own members.
Now, some of you may read this thread and be confused on what doxing is, so let the expert ethical hacker set you straight:
WHEN BAD PEOPLE POST SOMEONE'S INFO, IT'S DOXING AND IT'S ILLEGAL. WHEN HE DOES IT, IT'S EXPOSING AND IT'S OK.
The LonDini logo, as posted to his Instagram. A punisher skull with metal horns- very original, donut steal.
Where did he get his name? Well, it's a portmonteau of "Linux" and "Houdini", he claims. Obviously, Linux doesn't start with "Lon", but "Lonnie" does. Yes, he really put his first name in his super secret alter ego. What an exceptional individual.
A common tactic that LonDini members is to gatekeep who publicly represents the "movement", by threatening them with legal action for copyright infringement. They claim that "LonDini" and the LonDini symbol are copyrighted. A search of the U.S. Copyright Office records reveals no such copyright exists in the United States. So, they're just lying. Again.
A shocking display of homophobia from Leo.
(Seriously, though, he's been told many times at this point that 'poof' is a slur for gay men in the U.K., and it doesn't seem to bother him to keep posting it as a kind of catchphrase. Lol.)
LonDini posts internet privacy guides to his Patreon, which would be incredibly ironic if he were to be doxed... ...if privacy advice was treated like legal advice is in the U.S., it would be criminally fraudulent to claim expertise while being completely ignorant, like he does.
Pay him money and you'll get access to the "command center" of the movement. Basically, he's grifting Tik Tok kids into giving him money to personal army for them.
Compare the amount of dislikes on LonDini's Vice video compared to the amount of dislikes on a very similar video in the same series (As of 19 Oct 2021).
A look at the top comments of the Vice video.

Edit: Lmao, no, this is actually where it's registered.
You can tell he's a hacker because he puts fake matrix code and pictures of circuit boards on his monitors.

The Great LonDini's Youtube channel is filled with stream VODs varying in length from a minute to over an hour, all titled "IN PERSUIT". Yes, they're all spelled incorrectly in the same way but it's evident Leo can't spell at a grade school level so this is unsurprising (in one video title he spells 'parents' as 'patents'). A four minute example stream:
A broken video of Leo standing in front of a green screen with a bad rain effect over it plays a few times while cutting in and out before the video switches to what appears to be a Tik Tok egirl doing karaoke in an inflation fetish suit. After that tortuous clip, a snippet of Dragon Ball anime plays before some cop dash cam footage closes out the stream.
Every single one of these videos is just as bizarre. The comments and livestream chats from his fans either ignore the content of the streams or express confusion. Many of the streams are filled with B-roll of him wearing the mask, sometimes with others also wearing masks, in a dark room while someone waves a flashlight around, generic 3D animations, or replays of his past Tik Tok videos. One 53 minute stream is nothing but police dash cam footage.
The streams are completely meaningless and devoid of content. My assumption was that they were intended to be mysterious and aesthetic, but they just come across as slapped together B-roll video he set to automatically broadcast. A search of his channel reveals that they are indeed set up in advance.
In conclusion, Leo is trying to create mystery around himself but all he's actually doing is posting longform cringe.
Edit: He deleted all of his past streams, but continues to upload new ones under the titles "On the Job", and "Hangman". It seems he finally realized that "persuit" was spelled wrong.
