I love the implication that this random person should be the authority on whether or not I can see the no-fly list.

I mean she pretty much explains the whole process of getting it. If you're willing to get prosecuted just go get it yourself.

In the Daily Dot article above:

> CommuteAir added that the server, which was taken offline prior to publication after being flagged by the Daily Dot, did not expose any customer information based on an initial investigation.

So the fact that she has gained access to this restricted list, has somehow granted you entitlement to it? Or are you implying that every person on that list should be doxed to satisfy your curiosity?

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets added to the list as well after pulling this stunt.

She's already been indicted on federal charges for hacking. Not being allowed to fly wouldn't be the main issue if she found her way into an American airport or airliner.

Reading that wiki page, it sounds like he's on his way to a long stint in prison, or worse. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets black-bagged now that he's attacking critical national infrastructure and encouraging others to do so.

Why do you keep saying "he"? It's pretty easy to respect people's pronouns...

who cares?

Someone who continues to deliberately misgender after being told about it - especially using "he" when the person's name (Maia) is traditionally a woman's name - seems to care quite a bit.

If you use binary genders you use male or female ones and people tend to use the same pronouns once they start with them. If someone uses gendered pronouns you shouldn't take that to mean that's the one the subject prefers but rather that's the gender the person who wrote it perceived.

If they truly don't care to perceive a gender then a 50 / 50 pick. When I look at it's picture I honestly couldn't tell you if I perceive more male or female so I would've done same as op and picked one randomly and then for consistency not change it, even if some unrelated party tried to confuse things by making me change it.

We don’t have to guess. They’re just openly transphobic. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34450709
