It's not about notoriety. It's simply the physics of interacting with the public. If you don't like the results you need to change the physics to private. There is nothing that can guarantee your anonymity or pseudonymity as you distribute your information to public actors. They can correlate your actions regardless of your wishes on the matter. That's what doxxing is.
- pharke 6y agoSounds like a recipe for a chilling effect to me. Why risk being denounced? Just shut up and never interact with anyone in any way that others could use against you. As a society we need to enforce norms that protect everyone's ability to operate in good faith. If a person or an organization doxxes someone or publishes information against their expressed wishes without a clear moral obligation to do so then they should be held accountable. I'm hoping that this case has garnered enough attention that the pressure is being felt by the NYT and others.
