I am very curious about this tbh. Has anyone here gone to that site? I read that they just report publicly available info that people have voluenteered online. While I understand that doxxing is terrible and so is targeted harassment, are they that much worse than the daily mail or any other gossip magazine?
- gossip magazines usually target "public figures". many jurisdictions have relaxed privacy rules around those. KF targeted whom they found... "interesting"
- haven't really read gossip magazines, but i assume they have a higher bar. for example, did any of those print the hunter biden dick pics requested to be deleted in the "twitter files"? cause you could be sure of them to have been on KF, if they had thread on him
- "publicly available info" is stretching it quite a bit. In the case of @elonjet, we that is info required by law/court to be public. KF, on the other side, is more like "stuff that was ever published somewhere" (as opposed to getting new stuff), so again your nudes are fair game for them, no matter any distribution rights
I'm glad they "cracked" and wish they'd initially dropped KF.
Personally I don't care, they are free to have whatever policy they want, but doing exactly what they did one week after writing up a blog post and explicitly stating that they most likely won't drop any websites like that anymore was a bit disappointing.
