We know about how you’ll never forgive a murderer, never forgive a pedophile, never forgive a child molester .etc
I want to know from anyone, what else they find pretty unforgivable.
For me, it’s when you dox me or someone else. I’m from the old ancient internet days as it was developing and doxxing is something you just don’t do. In some aspects, doxxing is useful for revealing extremely problematic users like online pedophiles. But a lot of times, doxxing is just an extreme dirty move to pull on anyone when nobody wants their online personas tied to their real lives. Especially in an age where privacy is white hot.
Someone actually did dox me on their Facebook and I already disliked them to begin with, but they went into the “I hate this fucking person” part with me when I discovered that they doxxed me. And no matter if there’s any chance at all to attempt to reconcile any difference, they’ve crossed that line, I don’t trust them and again, I hate the living shit out of them for it.
Doxxing’s pretty fucked. the qualities in a person that lead them to do that are canaries for some chronic issues, I think. Lolcowism, in general is like that
The worst part is, is that doxxing in of itself isn’t illegal, not in the US anyways. But I feel it is also a can of its own worms because, if someone does make doxxing illegal, that would give online pedophiles some power that we do not need them to have. There would be people taking chances on revealing someone’s identity online who are doing predatory acts.
But I understand in a way, why doxxing isn’t illegal because it has to be based on intent.
