Should the Washington Post be banned? Or should their journalist, Taylor Lorenz be banned from Twitter for doxxing the Libs of TikTok person?

We should be consistent and non-arbitrary. There’s so many more examples.

She should be reprimanded, in my opinion. The Washington Post is not encouraging their readers to harass or doxx individuals or groups, so this is a false equivalency.

How would you feel if someone made a "Finding Nemo" forum in which they tracked down your identity, your family, and your friends and encouraged its members to harass and doxx you and your family?

Oh, and this forum hid their identity behind Cloudflare while, at the same time exposing your identity and personal details?

Would you support Cloudflare banning said forum?

Publishing libsoftiktok's information was definitely intended to harass them, and implicit support for doxxing.

No.
