"One extra digit added to an IP address saw Nigel Lang wrongfully
suspected of being a paedophile. Speaking about his ordeal for the first
time, he tells BuzzFeed News how the mistake ruined his life."

A disastrous mistake. And, as usual, everyone involved was certain they
couldn't possibly have made a mistake.
