That's clear. Here's the fundamental disconnect, as I see it. Your position - correct me if I'm wrong - is that Reddit's architecture encourages oversharing and Reddit's team does nothing to protect people from the consequences. My position is that you shouldn't start out by victim blaming three times over if this is your position. I'll spell it out for you: People have been trying to dox me for a long time. Do I "deserve" it? I've been an active and high-profile participant on a site that went from interesting to vicious to virulent so yeah - if "participation" equals "deserve" then yep, walked right into that one. But you've got an oddly moral leaning to it all that makes zero sense. As you point out yourself, Reddit went ass over teakettle doxing a dead college student so constantly harping on violentacrez makes little sense. I'll spell it out for you further: violentacrez was an enemy of mine. He spent months trying to trip me up and bring down the rage of the horde upon me because he thought it would be fun. I even asked him about it - wanna know what he said? "Nothing personal." Let's back this up to a quote: I hope you now see that things are vastly more complicated than that, and, in the words of Bill Munny, "Deserve's got nothing to do with it."I'm still not sure what you're getting at.
So no, I don't fear posting because I post stuff I generally feel is reflective of what I really think and feel and am willing to say in public. Why make things more complicated than that?
