WT's process for living persons attempts to head this off. It's not perfect, but I think it's a pretty good method.
When you enter data about a living person, you are required to include an email which "invites" that person to WikiTree. If they don't respond within 30 days, their record (which was already private) is anonymized to last name and decade of birth.
Each record's privacy is configurable by its maintainer, or by those to whom the maintainer has granted access.
Obviously there are ways to goof this up or act maliciously, but I don't think the site makes intentional doxxing any easier than it already was.
