Villainy
His Internet Addiction Treatment Center has been widely claimed that it's a violation of basic humanity. His Center has a tight class system and rule system that new patients are in the lowest class and are frequently forced to receive ECT. When patient is considered as a "obedient" patient, he/she will be promoted to a higher class which has the power of drawing circles in someone's name and those who are circled will be punished by the ETC. Also, higher class will receive less punishment.
