    Oh no! This guy is in danger! We should set up a ton of security cameras around his house so we can all keep an eye on him and make sure he’s safe!

      We should probably just have his computer searched on basic principles, since these guys always turn out to be paedophiles. Always, like literally every single time.

        makes sense, they are passing a lot of child protection laws to protect children that infringe on privacy of computer users. He’s probably making that AI CSPAN or whatever it is.

    Now, to be clear, doxxing someone is completely indefensible and dangerous because it puts real people in physical danger. But the irony here is thick.

    Hmmmm. Putting nazis in physical danger is very defensible i think.

      I just like the idea that knowing where he lives in some way puts him in more danger than he already was before. Anyone who really wanted him dead would already has this information.

      So basically him being docxed is just about telling everyone where he lives. He doesn’t want that because it’ll result in protesters turning up on his lawn but his life is not in any more danger.

        He has nothing to fear if he has done nothing wrong. That’s what he and his supporters say, right?

        JD Vance had this too. You can’t even get up onto the street where his house is when he’s home now, because he’s so scared of protestors in front of his house that he’s had the Secret Service lock the entire street down just to feel safe.

      Defensive violence is justified only so long as it is defensive.

      For example, torturing prisoners is immoral even if the prisoners in question were (and want to be) executioners for the State. They do not pose a legitimate threat of violence when they are (controlled) prisoners.

    Set up cameras around his house, not pointing directly at his house. Then make some software to guess when he is home or not and what vehicle he left in. Then sell that data to anyone for a cent. Include wi-fi and bluetooth tracking too.

        That’s true. He is on record stating that safety is more important than privacy. I’m sure he won’t mind.

    Such a rookie!

    Didn’t he know, in order to pull such stunts with the general public, you have to live in private jets and yachts only.

    What about axon? They are taking contracts over now… Sucks cause this company also helps with body cameras and those are good.

      Apparently Axon doesn’t have the same national network. So a cop in Texas can’t track his ex or a woman going for an abortion in Oklahoma.

      I still don’t like having ALPR type cameras all over town, though.

        Its better to have a judge be able to see the footage and make a judgement than it is for there to be no record of the cop violence at all.

          Yes I could see the logic in that but here’s how it used to « see, mister Judge, how the culprit wasn’t responsive to my threatening and escalating demands, I had to use force to subdue the culprit who was increasingly violent as I made violent escalating demands »

    Corporations are not people and should not have any rights to public space or resources, that includes publicly available information. We don’t put things in the commons to be pilfered by private interests, we can’t have a commons when they can pilfer them. But here we are.

      Completely incomparable. Limited in scope to the local area. Easily opted out of. And not constantly being replaced with other phone books with more and more arcane ways of opting out.

        I wouldn’t say that’s completely incomparable. We could also call the operator back then. The location was public. Local area is still a lot of people.
