Cuz right now I know at least 3 dozen #queer folks who have to #nuke their #Twitter in order to not get literally #doxxed to authorities and #relatives in juristictions that literally criminalize their existance with state-sponsored #murder because that's the only option to enshure a tiny #InfoSec fuckup aka. #oversharing WON'T get them flatlined!

#ApartheidEmeraldBoy / #SpaceKaren literally has #blood on his filthy-rich hands!

DESHALB sollte die #ElektronischePatientenakte verboten und #Datensammlungen medizinischer Art nur als expliziter #OptIn erlaubt sein:

Wer wie ich auch nur ansatzweise Einblicke in #MedicalIT hatte weiß dass es mit der verkorsten #IT und #WinSchrott-Kosten nur eine Frage der Zeit wäre, bis dann die medizinische Historie aller in Deutschland #doxxed würde!

So wie's bereits in den #USA passiert....

So very tired of being #doxxed and #abused because I am #queer and a #bishop. I am tired of the #threats, #harassment, #bullying and the lack of common curtesy. People think that since I am a bishop I must be solemn, prudish, and live as a monk. I am not allowed to have any #fun, #friends, #indulgences, or time to myself. They use my #sexuality and #gender against me like a bully club. God forbid I be a #humanbeing! Oh, and I am not allowed to have #emotions either. /end rant

I used to run a #data #privacy workshop, and to demonstrate the impact of poor practices (both of companies and individuals) I'd pick the first (non-minor) girl that popped up when searching #Twitter for #selfie or #nofilter, then find out everything interesting that I could over the course of the following 10 minutes.

After the timer went off, I'd usually say something along the lines of,
"Now that we know [list of info] about [name], let's plan our first get-together! Should we pick them up from [work/school] or just drop by their place?"

Update: dang this post is getting too long, so I'm going to cut a bunch and just jump to the links and a couple tips.

If you're interested in this stuff (and you don't smell like a creep), feel free to ask me anything—I'm always happy to help if I can.

Now back to the post.

Here are some lovely people-finder sites you don't want to be on:

https://beebom.com/best-people-search-engines/

People sites like the ones in the above link are usually a pain in the butt to get yourself removed from. They'll often ask you for all your info before allowing you to remove any of it—some require you to upload a picture of your ID (fuck that).

A reasonable counter-measure against these sites is disinformation. If you show up on them, take a minute to "update their records" if you can. If you have writer's block, use a site like https://www.fakenamegenerator.com/ to make shit up.

List of face-search sites you don't want to be on:

https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/3-fascinating-search-engines-search-faces/

If you find yourself on a site like #PimEyes, #TinEye, #FaceCheck, etc, ask to be removed. Also, don't use any image of yourself that isn't already public knowledge in order to see if you're on the site—you're just giving them a new reference point.

The same ideas help as counter-measures for people search sites too: disinformation and distortion.

It's also worth checking out https://support.google.com/websearch/troubleshooter/3111061?hl=en if you need to make things like #revengeporn, #doxxed records, and other sensitive information harder for people to stumble across.

In closing, I'll leave you with a quote:

"Of the [346 victim services] programs that responded, 97% indicated that victims who seek their services are being harassed, monitored, and threatened by offenders misusing technology. The majority of survey respondents were domestic violence and sexual assault programs (88%)."

I was once on Twitter.

Even though I have deleted all my tweets, Elon knows everything there is to know about me: where I live, my aspirations, financial status, political view point, and sexuality etc

So how comes he gets stroppy when people talk about his plane?

Whose #data
Who's being #doxxed

https://t.co/6sYbphy2fI “#reporters for the #NewYorkTimes, #cnn and the #washingtonpost were among those locked out of their accounts, after Mr #Musk accused them of sharing location data about him.
But amid mounting #criticism, he asked #twitter users what to do next.
And 59% of the 3.6 million who took part voted to lift the #ban immediately.
"The people have spoken. #accounts who #doxxed my #location will have their #suspension lifted now," he tweeted.
The ban was condemned by the #EU+#UN.”

FoxNews #doxxed #Florida #whistleblower and then faked #outrage over #elonjet kid for posting public #FAA #data.

I see it's going the way he wanted Again (this his second try at getting the result he wanted, first failed)

Just can't make this crap up, someone please give ManBaby his DumDum back....

No one #doxxed him. He’s all over the place, making things up as he goes it seems. #ElonMusk #Twitter

Elon Musk’s promised Twitter exposé on the Hunter Biden story is a flop that doxxed multiple people

The documents don’t show what Musk thinks they show, and a US Representative is going to have to change his email address.

CORPORATE MEDIA: *whistles to self*

Hi I'm Fred, I donated $10 to protestors who basically loitered at the #CapitolBuilding because you didn't air the #Biden family's apparent #ConflictsOfInterest.

CORPORATE MEDIA: "#Terrorist! Put Fred Johnson of 237 Cherrystem Road on the no-fly- -"

"Err, #corporateMedia… you killed him."

"We prefer the word #doxxed, thx"
