Got permanently banned on Political Memes by JonsJava, for doxxing republican politicians.
Too many times, I expect my moderation to end up here. Many times, I wonder if I was wrong.
I’m not regarding this.
If the image was actually a 7zip file with personal data from politicians, I have to ask: what the hell where you expecting while posting it on a meme community? It’s not a meme, it’s not funny and depending on the laws might be a crime. Even if it’s not, it’s completely out of place in a meme community and can generate a lot of trouble to the admins.
You did this to yourself mate.
Of course, this applies only if the image was an actual file containing what you said, otherwise it’s a power tripping bastard alright.
Even if the image hadn’t been, the post contained the entirety of what the image was supposed to, which included not only names and addresses, but also the SSNs of the doxxed persons.
Were they innocent persons?
Is this your attempt at a serious argument?
We don’t need to be polite with them, they’re fash. Who cares if they get doxxed when they deserve far worse.
What we need to do is not make legal headaches for db0 by allowing our users to post people’s social security numbers online when republicans are notorious for using litigation as a weapon to harass people they don’t like.
Oh sorry, I didn’t know this was .world. I guess we should also make sure not to bad mouth Zionism as that’s antisemitic and may cause headaches. Better delete the piracy comms, they’re also legal headaches.
Did that little tantrum make you feel a little better, Champ?
Like pretty much every other person, I’m gonna say YDI.
Bruh, what the fuck? YDI
I’ve definitely been scanning the news lately, and totally expecting to see something like, “And he released his manifesto to a little-known social forum called Lemmy…” about one of you guys.
If I were a new up and coming law enforcment agent, I’d totally be checking out Lemmy. lol
If you wanna go extreme and shit, cool, but do it somewhere else, please. Lemmy ain’t a safe place for you to be doxxing people. If dbzer0 gets shut down because of people like you doing shit like this, imma be pissed.
What the fuck were you thinking and what was your end goal here?
The truly extreme action of releasing publicly available information
(Also we already had one but he was a mod of an community with like ten subscribers and apparently didn’t do anything cool here)
The truly extreme action of releasing publicly available information
So if it’s so publicly available, then no reason to post it on Lemmy. Also, someone mentioned the post had Social Security numbers. I don’t care what Lemmy says or how much Lemmy hates people, I’ll always think posting people’s info like that is uncool.
Doxxing is never cool, friend. And can get dbzer0 into some uncomfortable legal noise.
When you gonna post your manifesto, friend?
No one cares about your concern trolling, fascist.
Are you implying that I’m a fascist because I think doxxing social security numbers is bad for a Lemmy instance? That’s a strange take.
Also, it looks like most people are downvoting OP’s post and agreeing that he deserved it. Are they fascist too?!
This absolute goober just calls everyone they disagree with fascist, they do it multiple times per day.
I wouldn’t worry too much about what they have to say.
I think it’s morally sound but I get them removing it, idk how the laws are in the netherlands but this would probably be a huge headache for them to deal with, atl that’s what happened with Ada.
So I’m going with a YDI, but I don’t hate what you did lol.
While we’re on this topic, though…
Why did you include an IP logger in your bio? I see its removed now through a link shortener, but i don’t trust it. Please explain this.
that’s what happened with Ada.
What happened.?
OP posted a doxx of 4chan admins on 196 and Ada permabanned with content removal. I didn’t know about all of that before but that’s how I learned everything
Why did you include an IP logger in your bio?
I wanted to show and see myself, how easy it is. Even without hiding, it took more than two months for someone to notice.
Well, that’s… Not good.
Doxxing shithead politicians and nazis is one thing, harvesting IPs of innocent users is a whole other thing regardless of what your intentions were. I honestly don’t know why you thought this was a good idea, but I’m too busy to deal with it so I guess I’ll let the other admins decide what to do in this situation.
If you don’t proxy images, then you’re asking to do this.
The fuck are you talking about? Is this some kind of protest for us to proxy images? If so, you could’ve just started a fucking vote, not harvest users’ IPs, jesus christ.
Ydi. Not the purpose of that comm
So, it’s okay to permanently ban for an off-topic post?
Up to the mod really, but I wouldn’t call that merely off topic
Honestly you’re lucky that you weren’t instance banned.
YDI, not what a meme community is for, and potentially illegal.
If it doesn’t fit community, then why I got 86 upvotes and only 1 downvote?
Also, being queer is also illegal in some countries. Does that mean queer content should be banned as well?
Votes are irrelevant, show me what meme involves doxing people.
Site wide rules on most instances will earn you a ban for illegal content. If you argue against that I assume you want to post CSAM.
If you argue against that, I assume you want to post CSAM.
Lol
Is it illegal in the country where the instance is hosted? High doubt, so pointless to compare.
Also: do you even know the difference between posting a meme and doxxing people?
Also: do you even know the difference between posting a meme and doxxing people?
I’m from a country, where a meme could easily lead to jail, so no.
Is the image actually a 7z archive? I don’t believe it is, and at first glance I thought that was the joke because the current administration considers possession of Vance memes a reason to do bad things to people. If that’s the case, then whatever the opposite of YDI is.
It actually is, has addresses SSNs emails etc of multiple republicans (opposite of YDI is PTB)
In that case, I ammend my response to YDI like everyone else. That’s not a meme.
