This is one of the most dangerous uses of social media by a researcher. (Well, there was that other guy that posted extremist content to his own feed to test moderation on fleets.) ugh.

Research ethics now. We must hold each other to account. https://twitter.com/jsrailton/status/1349181198501875718

I have written about the policing functions of doxing and private info before this moment, including dumpster diving. What’s different here is the remarkable capacity for misidentification to produce misinformation, when people do this in the open and it reaches many more people.

Misidentification can cause so much grief as we saw with the Reddit case of the marathon bomber: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/reddit-falsely-accuses-sunil-tripathi-of-boston-bombing-2013-7%3Famp

Also, I am starting to feel like the Karen of this research field because I also wrote this piece with @hypervisible about researchers misusing facial recognition.

It's the same researcher who used facial recognition that is doxing in the wild: https://slate.com/technology/2021/01/facial-recognition-technology-capitol-siege.html
