gollark: > Admitting to know a lot about someone but not sharing it with anyone else except the target, suggesting it to remove from given sources, is doxxing.Not really *doxxing*, but stalking-y.

gollark: > "surveillance" also happens when one researches documents available to general public.Yes, it does, and your rather passive-aggressive claim about how "there would be no need for NSA to exist" doesn't invalidate this. You can spy on people using information which is available for regular people to access with some work.

gollark: Because you might be an alt.

gollark: Yes, nobody was banned.
