Gawker is apparently doing an article on the doxxing at AVFM. Here is some of their correspondance with the MR mods (including an email address). Feel free to share your opinion with them.

Nobody doxxed these students, the students broke the law and a media publication investigated and reported it.

Everything you say to them WILL be used against you.

I promise.

Do not help them.

Wait, why is a "Gawker freelance journalist" using a gmail account?

I'm kinda surprised they didn't contact CAFE. They're the ones who organized the actual event. Warren Farrell would probably also get back to them.

Edit: You know, if they were writing a proper article and all.

"raises eyebrows" Interesting. You'd think if they were really that interested they would have gone directly to the person who authorized the publication of the information.....Paul Elam.

WTF is this world coming to?

Back in my day, violent bigots could assault cops and harass peaceful folks trying to attend a seminar about human rights and stay totally anonymous.

Here is a the thread where JTO discussed the "doxxing".

The response was unsurprisingly "no comment" because we are a sub focused on improving men's lives, doxxing feminists has nothing to do with this and serves little purpose, and that AVFM needs to improve the quality and tone of it's articles.

I'm confused. If the mods think they're researching for a hit piece, why are we being encouraged to give them ammunition? Surely they're just going to cherry-pick the less reasonable messages and attempt to torch us?

howcanistop · 2012-12-19T23:12:14+00:00

Would you call a feminist organization promising to publish Paul Elam's address and routes to work as "doxxing" ?

If Gawker was actually worried about misogyny it would be roasting the places where it's so vulgar and so regular it's almost beyond being caricatured, namely rap culture.

But nope. Gawker quietly doles out the usual "minority passes" and just hounds out whoever is explicitly opposed to its ideological sympathies. Color me not surprised.

:Sigh:

Its phishing 101. Unless you're being directed to correspond with an official rep of whatever site/news outlet then you are perfectly fine ignoring them. An official email from their domain would be a good start. The onus to prove their cedibility is on them. Perhaps this is an opportunity to reverse doxx by getiing this person to identify themselves?!

Ask them to send a picture of them holding up a piece of paper with the email address they're using, as well as a copy of their driver's license.

Man, I seriously have no idea how the Reddit system works. :/
