Where there's social media, there's trolling, and one mysterious TikTok user has set out to put a stop to it.

The Great Londini could be mistaken for a sinister vigilante, with his white mask, dark hood and distorted voice. But actually, he's one of the good guys who's taking on trolls one at a time.

The Great Londini is like a modern-day answer to a Marvel superhero, fighting the villains online and bringing justice to the victims of cyberbullying.

Who is The Great Londini on TikTok?

The Great Londini is a TikTok account and online movement which aims to stop trolling, bullying and scamming online.

The Great Londini is recognised by his signature white mask and black hood; keeping his identity concealed, which is thought to be an ironic nod to trolls who hide behind their anonymous comments.

The account is said to be run by a number of computer wizards who can track down the trolls behind anonymous comments.

"We are a collective of white hat ethical hackers aimed at ending cyberbullying. Our members comprise the top CEH (Certified Ethical Hackers) and cybersecurity experts in the world," it says on their website.

"We are an open group that welcomes anyone that believes in termination of bullying, racism, and scamming on social media."

There's currently a petition to get The Great Londini's social media accounts verified.

What does The Great Londini do?

The Great Londini has accounts on YouTube and Instagram as well as TikTok. He has 9,500 subscribers on YouTube, 2.3 million followers on TikTok, and 34,000 followers on Instagram.

"Stupid game. Stupid prize," is The Great Londini's catchphrase, with trolling being the game and the prize being Londini tracking you down. And what he promises, he delivers.

He recently exposed a frequently occurring troll who was posting racist comments on a TikTok user's videos of her baby daughter.

"This beautiful child receives [racist] comments like this almost daily," The Great Londini said in a TikTok stitch which included the video and racist comment. "And it's for that reason that I'm going to do something I don't normally do. Check the comments for more information," he warned.

In the comments, The Great Londini urged his followers to head to his Instagram, where the supposedly anonymous troll had been exposed.

The Great Londini found the name of the person and posted a link to their Facebook profile so they could get a taste of their own medicine, just proving that even anonymous comments can be traced, and there's no escape from The Great Londini.

As well as fighting trolls, The Great Londini urges parents to make sure they're keeping tabs on their kids' social media to prevent cyber-bullying. He recently posted a video where he said: "This is your unfriendly reminder. If you are not checking your kids' social media, you are the problem."

Hundreds have flocked to the comments under the TiKTok video to praise up The Great Londini and show their support.

One user commented: "Great job. We need more heroes!! Time for more freedom and peace in this world!!"

"If you weren't here [TikTok] would be so much worse," commented another, which received more than 2,000 likes.
