Doxxing works both way. Without some brain gymnastics, it is hard to persuade oneself that some cases of doxxing are good, while others are bad.

  Is it doxxing to provide a tip to law enforcement? (An indictment would end up having the person publicly identified with the actions in the indictment)
  • CodeWriter23 9y ago
    No. Doxxing quite specifically is the PUBLIC disclosure of personal details.
    • maxerickson 9y ago
      Yes, note the parenthetical. Police generally publicly disclose the names of people that are charged with crimes.

    Doxxing involves a distinguishable and important element, that is public shaming. It doesn't really need the involvement of police or whatever law enforcement.
