This case is odd. It's not some authority; it's a comnunity sharing information for theur own protection, a formalized gossip network of threat identification.

Not a perfect solution, not how I'd hanfle it, but the alternative is just assuming every man is a piece of shit.

Edit: which i assume most of you want to hide.

The women who go on there clearly do it not out of spite for men but because the system is clearly not sufficiently ensuring their safety. I’m not saying it’s a good solution but idk why the internet is so enthusiastic about women who likely had bad experiences (including r*pe) being doxxed and calling it karma…

but the alternative is just assuming every man is a piece of shit.

If bad experience so common that community exist, maybe that not bad solution. Always take second person to date, always take self defense thing, etc.

Men not known as creep before date by someone in community or maybe friend. Always take precaution could protect against creep even if unknown man.

I just dont date men, don't smile around men unless it's mean or im wearing a mask, don't compliment men even on innocuous things unless they're like half my age or younger, and yeah, i think about exits a lot.

This is a superior solution, because it actially works and does not make me a target for that garbage gender's bullshit.

This sarcasm? Kind of sound like sarcasm, but remind me of many women i know.

Nope. It's how i deal.

If i compliment a man, it won't stop hitting on me until i get violent or gross. I'm not even that pretty. Maybe a global 6/10, and i live in souyhern california, so I'm a local 3.

If a man sees me smile it might decide that was flirting, so i only smile in cases where it's very very clearly not. Then I'll have to lose it before anything bad happens, do things like hop off a bus just before the doors close (dick move to the driver), climb something (I'm not young, do like nice clothes), or do a 'frogger' larp, which is only about half as dangerpus as letting it follow me home¹.

And i absolutely don't date them; im not cursed to have no other option sexually, so why the fuck would i defile myself with that one?

The exits thing is mixed with other stuff, various ptsd sources, but i expect I'd have put it together just existing around so many monsters like that.

¹which is wild. Again; im not particularly beautiful. About half of all houses contain a woman. This should not be a danger, and yet i regularly need to get all cloak and dagger to deal with almost half the population! Because of course none of them understand "no"! Not when a woman says it!

You don't need to be a peak tech literate person to have been able to accomplish this.

The level of neglect of security that was involved when creating that app should really be criminal. Door was left wide open for anyone to walk in a take a peek

IIRC it's the app they uploaded the pictures to that had them publicly accessible

Source of doxxing claims?

Are you stupid or just lazy? This app is full of extremely private date about men. Pictures, Phone numbers, social media, home addresses, mental health history, etc.

Doxing is the entire purpose of this app!

I don't like this app. I don't like the idea of this app. I think the whole thing was misguided.

But let me tell you of a time when I was younger and more festively slutty, I had a few encounters that might have made me a user. Not all men, no, but after the third time a dude threatens to rape you in a park, you start to wonder if you could be doing more to protect yourself.

Remember, ladies, these days you can print your own handguns and make them look like whatever you want.

I wish you weren't right, but the other day my brother asked me how to open a zip file. He's 20.

Tbh, if you use the dox 3000 app, you have to expect them not valuing your privacy.

No, it's one of the few clearnet sites that still allow anonymous posts without email or anything. Just CAPTCHA. Everything is deleted after a while, so moderation is barely necessary. Many search engines don't even index it. It's a quick way of reporting something interesting anonymously.

"But I thought I was the one doing the doxxing!"

Holy crap, I never thought about that. That's a whole different take on an assassin's teapot.

Well legal or not, in the EU there are Facebook groups like this for every city. So it seems to be a need for women to ensure their safety. Don’t understand what’s so controversial about that… it’s like cancel culture: when there are no legal repercussions to misbehaving stuff like this happens.

I'd suggest just buying a small frame pistol. Printing your own and making it work reliably takes a level of know-how and effort.
