Because Dan B doesn’t deserve more publicity. That’s what he wants. The news organization has a duty to publish his name so we know the facts, but we have no obligation to increase an influencer’s reach.

I guess they've never heard of the Streisand effect, and caused many people, including me, to google "Dan B" to understand who they were talking about.

I probably would have skipped over and forgot after half a second the existence of this person if his name was written in full in the first place.

So… you admit to not reading the article.

actually, it was simply because I didn't want to write the name wrong :)

Hahaha. That is actually very funny.

Dan Bilzerian?
