When you watch the first episode of The Most Hated Man On The Internet, all you want is to see Hunter Moore get his comeuppance. Thanks to this relatively brief docuseries and its speedy pace, you’ll get that wish pretty quickly.

By making the conflict between Laws and Moore the central drive of the series, ‘Most Hated Man’ succeeds mainly in showcasing just how terrible Moore was and how determined Laws could be. Charlotte’s scorched earth approach to taking down Moore is both fascinating and infinitely watchable. But, by flattening the narrative to a simple narrative of good versus evil, the implications of Moore’s behavior go largely unexplored.

In the grand scheme of the internet, the most hated man on the internet burned out quickly. And that’s the core of the flaw of Rob Miller’s docuseries—a failure to place what Moore did in the larger context of what came before and, more importantly, what came after.

Netflix has enjoyed considerable success with a certain vaguely sleazy subgenre of docuseries -- "The Tinder Swindler" and "Our Father" among them -- and "The Most Hated Man on the Internet" falls squarely within that wheelhouse.

The docuseries’ three hourlong episodes go by quickly, thanks to its streamlined storytelling and brisk pacing, and it delivers on both the white-hot outrage and the grim satisfaction promised by the downfall of a dude who really had it coming. But The Most Hated Man on the Internet falls short of the ambition needed to lend it real, lasting heft.

It is presented in that recognisably Netflix way: a dramatic narrative arc; contributors talking direct to camera with the fluency of seasoned actors; and a cast of heroes, villains and eccentric supporting characters. ... Why dredge this up a decade on, bringing him back into public consciousness? The show is rated 18 and it’s full of truly unpleasant things that I shan’t list here.

My recommendation to people has always been not to take intimate pictures or videos, even with your partner, because unfortunately they can end up in places like the ones shown in this documentary series. It's absolutely true that there's nothing wrong with exploring that side of sensuality and sexuality, but we also need to be 100% aware of the risks.
A lot of people have told me that it shouldn't be like that, that we should be able to trust people, but the truth is we don't live in that reality, do we? Do you think guys like Hunter Moore are the worst thing you can find online? He's just the tiny tip of the iceberg. This documentary miniseries is practical and informative enough, but let's just say that instead of being almost 3 hours long, it could easily have been only 2. Some things shouldn't be stretched out so long.
