Much information about a person is publicly available, that doesn't mean it's not doxxing when you gather it and broadcast it.

Whether you are finding someone's email, or real name, or jet location, or home address, and then announce it, you are doxxing them.

So you wouldn't mind your car being tracked and publicly broadcast?

It is just an automobile after all, and vehicles aren't citizens...

Cue fallback argument.

EDIT: added clarification to distinguish between Tweeting coordinates and Onstar services.

wait so you're saying doxing is on the same level as dissenting the government?

one thing is broadcasting personal information about a citizen, one is protecting a citizens right to object to actions by their government.

collecting public information is still doxxing. most doxxing involves only public information as it happens across the internet.

edit: a downvote is not a rebuttal, sorry, try again.

You realize that being pictured at a public event next to someone is different than flying to pedo island multiple times right?

False. We were during and after Crimea.

Or some people don't get worked up about a stalking jet account.

Yes being able to dissent the government about laptops or lab leaks or not rely o the russians to launch satellites or shuttle us to the space station is important as well.

Emotions and hyperboles when it fits here it seems. Reason comes second, if ever.

Everyone is still just pissy here because their liberal bubble is burst on Twitter.

I love Mastodon, now that it was accepted here the last month or so, why is everyone not on it yet?
