Episode notes

There is no bright line between malicious doxing and necessary journalism. Do i think that members of isis should be doxed? Absolutely. I show me some terrorist atrocity with people caught on sellphone cameras or security cameras. Do i want those people identified? Of course. But do i want somebody who has an opinion that is not shared widely by the woke mob doxed by that mob?" "I just don't see how that problem goes away by taking twitter private"
