but usually, yes

so is doxing universally a bad thing or not?

as usually means "it depends"

again, depends on your definition

I could more broadly define it as the releasing of personal information about a person

in which case the answer is "no"

see, the reason why we don't hold *specific* actions strictly to simplistic rules is because life isn't so simple

that's why we have *morals*

that exist in a more abstract sense

and require individual judgement to apply to real life

that being said

do not confuse the requiring of individual judgement as explicitly allowing subjective bias into the equation

the purpose of morals is to hold people to standards greater than the individual

the issue is that other than some actions that are punished by law there is more and more division regarding what morality is

and morals start to be defined by groups rather than society as a whole

another word that seems to lose its value is ethics, especially journalistic ethics

except, you are dealing with the problem by literally making it worse

"they make problem, we make problem!"

that is not how you address the issue

@Randall_Clark Morality is a spook

and how would you address the issue, given that each side has their own morality?

that's how human interaction works buddy

and there is no singular, hard-and-fast answer to that

given what you wrote before there is

otherwise not having an answer doesn't solve the problem

strawman

I never said there is no answer

> that is not how you address the issue
this implies there is a way to address the issue
so you must have an idea if you mentioned that

I just did

are you dense?

```[1:18 PM] Coolitic: that's how human interaction works buddy
[1:18 PM] Coolitic: and there is no singular, hard-and-fast answer to that```

no, that's an empty answer without any value

*for people who are socially retarded

this is just normal, human interaction

you are trying to analyze the situation as some sort of robot

looking for single, hard-and-fast answers

sorry kiddo, the avg human is more intelligent than that

I didn't ask for a single solution, I asked for a possible solution

you don't seem to understand what solving a problem means

olive branches

there is no single solution for this
