According to The New York Times, Andrew Anglin, whereabouts unknown, could be on the hook for a bit of cash.
The publisher of a neo-Nazi website should pay more than $14 million in damages for encouraging "an online anti-Semitic harassment and intimidation campaign" against a woman in 2016, a federal magistrate judge in Montana recommended on Monday.
In his opinion, the judge, Jeremiah Lynch, also recommended that the publisher, Andrew Anglin, be made to remove all blog posts from the website, The Daily Stormer, that encouraged readers to contact the woman, Tanya Gersh, and her family.
Within months of Mr. Anglin's call for a "troll storm" against them, Ms. Gersh and her family had received more than 700 vulgar and hateful messages, many referring to the Holocaust. They temporarily fled their home.
Mr. Anglin did not appear in court, and his location is unknown. He did not respond to an email on Monday requesting comment on the lawsuit. And it was not clear how much money if any could ever be collected from him.
Nice that Andrew has gone back to where he's from, allegedly Thailand.

lololol
clueless runaway grasping at straws!
No mention of anyone being doxxed in your article, just that some newspapers and local governments published data on gun owners. I don't think it is a good idea to publish such individual information buuuuut
you are a fuckwad for even bringing this up in this story. Can't handle your fascibros getting even a tiny bit of heat so you bring out a story that hardly even fits your narrative.

If you want to encourage firearm thefts and black market arms, posting an interactive map of where they can be stolen from is a good way to go.

Let us suppose that some news source were to publish the names and addresses of every gay in the city, or state?
Or, they published the names and addresses of every woman who has aborted a baby?
We all hate pedos, so it's alright to have a registry of pedos, with name, address, and photos, right?
Basically, what you're saying is, "It's alright to doxx this group that I don't like, but don't doxx anyone else!"

For someone who has left a trail all over the internets, Runaway1956, I would not make such a big deal out of doxxing, lest it be applied to you. Just some advice from a fellow Soylentil, be more careful.

Apparently in most states, license info/concealed carry info is not publicly available. Runnaway pointed to an article that was incredibly poorly thought out because it was basically a "here's where to rob" list. You think that's a good idea?

Hell, ya! I say publish it all, especially the coward who conceal-carry. Cowardly sneaks. But here is the real deal: so you have a "where to rob" list, of people who have guns? One: do you think they just leave them laying around, so you can steal them? Two, and here's the clincher, people who own guns, at least the wacko 2a types, just live for the day that they can defend their sovereign castle and their guns by using their guns to foil a gun robbery! How is is the not a win-win? The criminals have a fair chance of a good take, high value easily transported loot, and the homeowner has a chance to vindicate their obsession with firearms! Possibly they could both make out like bandits!

Even when locked up they can still rather easily be stolen. First, they may not be locked up. Second, if they are stored with trigger locks the entire gun walks away pretty easily. The trigger lock prevents unauthorized use but not unauthorized possession. Third even if the guns are stored in a locked cabinet or safe you just steal the entire safe.
When perimeter/building security is breached it is only a mater of time until access controls are subverted. Always. Only a mater of time. How much time is what you get to define. Just like a computer.
Please don't do things that actively encourage them to do that. Might as well go poke a bear in the face with a stick.

You're trying to claim that these are equivalent:
1. "Here are some people living near you with the means to kill you and your family."
2. "Here is exactly where you can find specific people that we'd like to make sure fear for their safety, and wouldn't mind seeing dead."
They aren't. Not legally, not morally.
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a compiler is a good guy with a compiler.

I have never owned and have no current intentions of owning a firearm.
But if I chose to do so, in a legal fashion, then I would be outraged also.
So as one who does not own a firearm, I think it is fair that I should be outraged over any doxing that may have occurred, because I would be outraged if I chose to be a member of that group who legally owns firearms.
The lower I set my standards the more accomplishments I have.
