You missed the part that the author who is apparently against harassment of women has been harassing the author of libs of tik tok.

This is a bs justification. All doxxing is finding public information and broadcasting it.

There is nothing newsworthy about her identity and if this would be a right-wing reporter doxxing a left wing person the article would be blocked from twitter.

1) They initially linked to her real estate license (before removing the link without an editors note) which includes her name, employer, and address.

2) All information is "public" if you dig enough. The argument is whether they should be doing that sort 3 digging and publishing it. Someone posted all this on Twitter, but it didn't get traction until Lorenz published it on the WP.

3) The story makes mention of her religion, which adds nothing to the story and can only be used as fodder for antisemites, and Twitter was full of that already.

4) You can argue whether or not she is a public figure and is entitled to more privacy, but the WP's own guidelines say someone's identity shouldn't be revealed unless it adds to the story. Knowing the name behind the account adds absolutely nothing, and the story doesn't even try to explain how it does.

And besides for that, there are numerous other issues with the story, including how it miscategorized what her account does, and what the people she "targets" are doing/saying. I won't link to it here, because it is beyond gross and disturbing, and no one needs to see it, but the video mentioned in the story lede is framed as a teacher doing "sex education" when in actuality they are teaching things so extreme, 95% of liberals would be like, "no way my kids should ever be seeing that".

#4 seems relevant. It also adds depth to #3

And did so in middle of pesach, which I'm sure really enhanced her (and her extended family whose door Lorenz knocked on) Yom Tov.

I was not suggesting that it was done now intentionally but if the Washington Post had even the slightest bit of respect, they would have pushed off publishing it.
