With a few exceptions, I lean towards anti-doxxing. First off, it could come back and bite US in the ass. Posting addresses and phone numbers aren't going to get any "content", they're just a honey pot for weens. Unless the cow posts them (like Chris did), there's really no point. (Posting it and saying, "well, I just put it there, I didn't actually CONTACT THEM!" WTF do you think is going to happen? C'mon)
Second, there is always the chance of getting the wrong person -- Spike Lee did that when he tried to dox George Zimmerman.
Third, I've seen people posting the information of family members (parents, siblings, etc) who aren't even involved in their drama. That I think should be off limits. I don't care if that makes me a white knight -- just because someone's related to a cow doesn't mean they deserve to be punished for it. Unless they're a cow themselves, leave them alone.
But what about finding content? Well, usually it's the cow themselves providing it. You shouldn't have to go stalking people for it. We're kind of spoiled with Chris, because the guy has absolutely no filter when it comes to providing his personal information.

The exception? If someone posts their own dox. Anything posted is fair game. As for us doxing? I say if they're a criminal, someone who's such an outright scumbag, like Nick Bate, then go for it. Some jagoff of on tumblr? Why bother?

So, when it doubt, I think it would be better off not being posted, or go through staff. Do we really lack for content here? Please. If they're not providing anything up front, they're probably not worth following in the first place. There's no need to go and look up someone's grandmother.

Again, this is just my opinion, take it for what it's worth,

I don't think it matters what happens, you can't hold someone responsible for the behaviour of others. You can argue that in certain instances the doxer is partly responsible if they goaded people into acting, but that's a separate issue from doxing itself, and it is an issue addressed by this thread. I personally think that's bullshit, since if there are people who are too autistic to think for themselves and let some idiot tell them what to do then I still think that's a problem with those people, but the argument can be made. But I don't really understand how it is different to say 'what did you think would happen when you talked about terryberry on kiwifarms? C'mon.'

Go yell at the white pages, not us.

Yeah, if the cow is stupid enough to willingly post his address, then that's fair game. Other than that, posting the addresses/phone numbers of lolcows just makes it so much easier for weens to "pozload my negholep", so to speak which, last time I checked, isn't exactly encouraged here.

What the fuck?
Was that english?
 
the best part of doxs are embarassing selfies (especially the Amberlynn a-logs, wowza) or profiles in disgusting sites
or in rare occasions finding out lolcow's mum is a vegan prostitute
delicate data is just there as a frame, and the only people that should make use of it are the lolcow's bosses, if they choose to fire them for company's image.
 
I think "no-doxxing" should be a rule.

If it's public information, fine, but aside from that, leave 'em alone.

Holy shit, are you for real? For one, talking about people in plain view of them is the most pathetic high school shit I have seen in a while.
For seconds, I'm taking it seriously? What? Are you not? So this was just your big 'hey doxing needs restrictions and guidelines and kop is proof' gag? Good one?
