I imagine this is partly because he really, really badly wanted to doxx the Harvard undergraduates who signed a letter blaming Israel for their actions so that he could create a blacklist of all those people and ensure they're never hired. Inadvertently proving them correct that expressing those kinds of views is very dangerous to your livelihood. So he took to lashing out at the university directly instead.
- nailer 3y agoThey signed a public letter. Making sure other people are aware of their actions is not ‘doxxing’.
- fzeroracer 3y agoIt was a joint statement of various student groups at Harvard with no names attached (to protect the people who signed it). He specifically wanted the names of everyone who signed or agreed with it released so they could be harassed or denied jobs. That's as close to the literal term of doxxing as you can get.
- nailer 3y agoIt was signed as "Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee". Membership of the group is not considered a secret.
- fzeroracer 3y agoNo, it was signed by the Palestine solidarity committee AND co-signed by 33 other organizations. Why do you think Bill was threatening them and demanding their names? Many individuals were doxxed and more were likely kept safe because it was signed by the org, not individuals.
- nailer 3y agoMembership of the group is not considered a secret, and a name of a group member is not considered doxxing. Not is being exposed for shameful viewpoints a matter of safety.
