You need to look at my reply in the context of the news I'm replying to.

This website is for publishing name and address info of people.

The most innocent thing that can reasonably come from that sort of activism are threats of which you can only hope are just that.

The only people who work for DOGE are named, not Tesla owners.

That's not how I read this (excerpt from article):

Dogequest,’ the recently launched website which is doxing some Tesla owners and members of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and putting their personal information on a searchable map

Journalism is unreliable in the 21st century. You have to go to primary sources

That's BS. But to entertain this, straight from their page source:

DOGEQUEST is the ultimate hub for fans of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to map and explore DOGE related landmarks. We also connect Tesla Motors owners with each other, using our AI-driven networking features.

So, show me a doxxed Tesla owner.

This map doesn't load on my Librewolf browser with Privacybadger which is something I find moderately concerning and why I looked at the source in the first place, so i'm going to draw a line here in drilling down into this pointless discussion if you don't mind.

Not in the least because you shouldn't be doxxing anybody in the first place.

I'm doxxing no-one.

If privacy is a concern then use Tor dogeqstqzn2yjns2d6ccns7aa52tglno63ay2uv2orfvd7e23khcsxid.onion
