I will suggest "laundry airing" from the classic idiom "airing your dirty laundry".

I still don’t understand why lolcows and their families get all butthurt over having their "receipts" shared when most of them post it up on public websites such as phone listings, social media ect.

i think it is less to do with the phone number being out there and more the a-logs who harass them. i personally wouldnt have a problem with my phone number being on this or any site if i knew for a fact that the a-logs and trannies wouldnt mess with me. if i never got any harassing phone calls, then why would i care if my number is out there?

this isnt to say i am blaming the farms, since plenty of places such as discord/twitter/bluesky/etc have people sharing phone numbers/email/social media leading to a-logs harassing lolcows. yet somehow only the farms ever gets yelled at for doxing. funny how that is

Phonebooking is great, of them all it feels the most intuitive and natural as a replacement in my opinion, despite its length.

I've been on the fence for "phonebooking," mostly because the past-tense sounds clunky. For example, "They were phonebooked within 10 minutes of making their post." just doesn't flow IMO. But, in the interest of brevity, it could be shortened to "'booked" instead. "They were 'booked immediately." has a nicer ring to it.

I personally prefer either "indexed" or "documented," as they don't sound like faggy zoomer speak, and they accurately describe the action without having any negative connotation. But if "phonebooked/'booked" became the norm, it's certainly not the worst option.

*Also, apologies for any redundancies, but I'm not reading an entire 60-page thread on this topic, lol.

I prefer "Deanonymize" or even "Infodumping", it just sounds better off the tongue.

Honestly, after seeing people use "phonebook" around the site a bit more since this thread was made, I do think it looks completely natural now, and I'm totally on board with it. Hopefully it catches on.

it works, I just think it's going to be a little confusing when we use "booking" as shorthand for "phonebooking".
 
I’m super late to the party here, I remember this during the start of the new year, & always meant to bring up that doxing is a portmanteau of documents + dropped. Doc’s dropped turned into dox, in early Internet lingo. All it means is finding information, at its heart. Journalists & butthurt old twitter tranny’s attempted to change the meaning just like they tried with the word woman.

I’ve quietly segued into using the long form of doxing, document drop, since the announcement in the OP of this thread came out, but wanted to chime in because I don’t think the trannys & journalists & other liars are going to be as successful as they imagine. Especially with that court case (name slips my mind, atm) which recently ruled in favor of the person who dropped documents, as it’s not illegal. It’s the equivalent of looking in the yellow or white pages, in most cases. Trying to litigate something so broad, when it only makes sense to litigate individuals if at all, in extreme cases of IRL harassment or assault. Frankly, online gossip doesn’t fit the bill, as the legal case recently settled. Maybe someone else can recall the case I’m trying to remember the name of.

There are two definitions of doxing (alt. doxxing):

a. Form of harassment in which personal information is used to intimidate, threaten, or distress others.
b. Searching / archiving public information and reposting it.

The Kiwi Farms has always had rules against contacting people. We've always had rules against threatening or extorting people. We've always had rules against encouraging other people to do those things ("someone should...").

No trolling plans. We are not an autistic Illuminati. Do not encourage off-site contact. If you feel compelled to do something, you can do it without getting attention. 🤨

I ended up asking Grok for a synonym for doxing that didn't carry the negative weight.

So Grok/xAI already is using "doxing" to mean illegal activity in its legal documents.
