There is a sudden fracas involving me and the forum which got me abruptly ejected from the latter. First of all, regarding a multi-years long doxxing situation I was able to pinpoint the perp to a globally banned user in NY, who got some in

I think I've agree with you on this one. Even on Wikipedia there's a ton of pages like SPI pages which can be indistinguishable from actual malicious doxxings. Not to mention that there a whole load of #MeToo scandals which would

My bad. But my point still stands because I was using their initial criteria when talking about survivorship bias.

by kurtreed2 1y ago
I think the goalpost is being moved. Your initial criteria was all about the resilency against state-sponsored disinformation attempts and the gaming of systems. For that criteria we don't have a comparable sample to look into when eva

There are actually some proposals to mass-delete the LTA pages but they all came to a naught.

Yet when I (or others) are trying to raise the issue on certain Reddit communities in addition to Lemmy people there still prefer to bury their heads in the sand. Often they'll simply resort to personal attacks and so on just to avoid

That's right. Often due process is skipped even if the blocks turn out to be errors or collateral damages later. It's not going to be 100% perfect at all because stylometries can be obfuscated (see https://ieeexplore.ie

It's going to be a Achilles heel for Wikipedia one day, mark my words. Those LTA pages often contains a lot of personal information which would violate GDPR in Europe, at least based on what I've heard from NOYB so far. Some edito
