Doxxing: Publishing private identifying information about anonymous Internet users Not Doxxing: Naming someone who attended a public rally

I'm not sure whether this loss will have net positive or negative effect, but it is inevitable. Large databases will be built.

Perhaps I'm wrong too about whether it is already being used to identify protesters on a mass scale. Could quickly build a "violent demo" db
