Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Hi, I'll assist. Let me look into this.
This person seems to have invaded your privacy, but the snippets of their comments make it seem like they were (at least originally) well intentioned and trying to find information about your husband and legal situation. They told you how easily they found information on you and exactly how they did it—this furthers my point that you can avoid this type of thing by modifying your own posting habits.
In my opinion, from the limited evidence in this screenshot, the other person needs a warning and you need a crash course in basic online safety.
Again, just to be clear, anybody who doxxes or stalks someone is in the wrong and should be held accountable. Likewise, we should all be accountable for our safety and privacy online also.
Actually, my name and photos of me are online for work related purposes and anyone can see those if they already know my name and profession. It isn’t against online safety for those items to be on public websites. It’s 2024, not the 90’s. I don’t think I need a crash course in online safety. I think people on Lemmy need to follow the rules. If you really want to advocate for online safety, why don’t you discuss how you signed up for Lemmy knowing your IP address would be visible to a bunch of strangers, with no required qualifications or background checks needed to operate and manage the Lemmy site. Do you need a crash course in internet safety? Should we argue everyone should just not have internet? Phones can be tracked really easily. Should everyone give up their phone?
That screenshot is also doxxing yourself and should be removed.
No, it really isn’t. My name is blocked out on it. I don’t need to ask myself for permission to screenshot my own inbox. That’s the beauty of being only one person. I don’t need to ask anyone for permission with regard to what I do with my own account.
No, I'm telling you that screenshot contains enough information to identify your name.
The URL contains what I assume is your husband's name and what is likely the court case number..
Blocking your name here is insufficient and identifying you from there is a 1 second affair.
I personally don't care about identifying you, but this screenshot is enough for anyone to do so. (Again)
Ah, I see that now. Thank you. For those wondering where my comment went, here is the comment with everything blocked.
Thank you so much for helping her ❤️
You're welcome. And thanks for the interview video, that's cool :-)
Please have something that is not automod ban me from your racist white ass fat boi instance! Make clear on the signup that Asians are not allowed. Thanks 🙏
Could you explain what you mean by this? Obviously Asians are allowed on this instance, so there must be some misunderstanding?
🙌🙌🙌🙌 FuckYeah, man! I'm so glad you liked it and found it funny yay !!! I was so hoping you had watched it too. Lol hahahahahaha
Thanks again and take care !!!
