Not sure how this is doxing. The person in question made herself a public figure and the journalist tried to verify her claims.

And why label this as some random drama? It is a modern day phenomena where people can easily fake their persona online for personal gains.

In the UK, you can use one of the challenger banks like Starling or Monzo. They not only show you "pretty graphs", but give you spending notifications and keep track of your direct debits, standing orders etc. So I don't see a reason to do this all manually yourself, which can also be error prone.

I also recommend Wire. I tried multiple alternatives for Skype and Wire was the only one which had good call quality and clients for all major platforms.
