Krebbs doxxed one of my friends who happens to be a gay hacker in a country where both being gay and being a hacker are illegal. Krebbs doesn’t take kindly to any sort of bad reviews or even the hint that he’s not perfect FYI.

It was notdan, and he’s quite open about both of the things I mentioned both on Twitter and his blog.

He is mentioned in this article.

I don't think that this comment belongs on HN - it's not civil, not in the spirit of HN, and it appears to be factually incorrect.

I don't know anything about the case or the current attitude of the blind neo-Nazi. Depending on the later, it could be very beneficial to see how someone could get sucked into a such mental state. Hearing how such a thing happends might be beneficial for those who are just starting that slide into exremism.

Even if the neo-nazi is still dyed in the wool, I certainly don't think that being curious about that person's perspective justifies being doxed.

That’s pretty shitty of him. I’m not saying anyone is a saint, only that krebs doxxes people who disagree with him, which can put their lives in direct harm. I’m not any more of a fan of wee ve than you.

Also, fuck Nazis.

No, I was thinking of him when I read hacker and nazi and was an idiot. That’s wrong but I can’t edit the comment so it stays.
