Tragedy has befallen our gracious hallowed halls. Words cannot begin to describe the calamity that weighs heavily upon my !thin, toned body. I am in despair (I also look fricking fabulous).

Many of our brothers and sisters (and sisterbrothers) have fallen due to the egregious breach in trust that many of you believed to have existed between yourselves. The greatest hurt is from those you love. I feel for you but I do not weep.

SO let's talk about how you don't get fricking GOT on the internet since a bunch of you stupid fricks DONT SEEM TO KNOW.

Here are the rules for not getting doxxed:

1. Do not tell people your government name (government name defined as: your actual fricking name) - this is obvious.

2. Do not send photos of yourself to people - I don't care how "close" you are with someone, if you send a photo of yourself that you lazily pulled from your social media THAT PERSON will be able to Google that photo and find your social media. Even sending a cropped/edited photo of yourself is risky as sites like socialcatfish and others literally exist to find your social media account using that photo with the power of "AI" based solely on what the frick your face looks like. Nothing is safe. DO NOT DO IT unless you truly trust that person and don't think they're going to eventually post you on Kiwifarms.

3. Do not use the same usernames on different websites - This should be a fricking given. You may not have said shit about who, where, or what you are on rDrama but if you did it somewhere else some mentally ill butthole only has to google your username to find somewhere else where you did and then you're in a whole heap of fricking annoyance. This is the most typical area where people end up fricking up on point 1 and 2. DON'T DO IT.

4. Do not use the same email address ever. Many websites ask you to create a username and password but also require an email address to join. Most of the time your account on those websites is searchable using that email address, so if your email address is public knowledge - it's super easy to know who you are because you did something stupid like use it for Cashapp or Venmo and your first and last name are visible when you look up your email. The fact that most people use their real name as usernames for financial apps makes getting you fricking cancelled EVEN EASIER.

5. Do not give anyone your phone number. This is very similar to the email address. It's so fricking easy to search Venmo/Cashapp/Facebook by phone number. If you give someone your phone number you are also giving them your name either via an app or they can just literally google your butt up because the fricking White Pages still does exist y'all (it just isn't free).

6. Do not ever be signed into LinkedIn. If you have a LinkedIn you know that whenever someone looks at your profile you are notified of who looked at your profile. DOXXERS DO THIS ON PURPOSE. Whoever you look at knows you looked at them and they thus know who you are. Many people don't realize that LinkedIn can be tied to your google account so if you are signed into your government name google account, you are also signed into LinkedIn so if you click a single bad fake LinkedIn account you have been GOT. Don't do that. YES you can change the settings for your account to view others privately on LinkedIn but most people do not and do not assume you have.

7. Be aware of what kind of Instagram account you are looking at: I am horrified to know that people ON THIS SITE have been sharing their IG with each other. DO NOT DO THIS. When you look at an IG story it shows the IG story owner who looked at their stories and you WILL be on that list. There is no way to privately view someone's IG stories. DO NOT DO THIS.

8. Be aware of what kind of Tiktok account you are looking at: When you view a video the owner is made aware of who saw that video and a doxxer could easily create a no-name nothing account just to figure out who you are simply because you accidentally viewed their video. Practice awareness with Tiktoks.

9. Google Docs. DO NOT EVER CLICK A GOOGLE DOC LINK Shared google docs literally can show all of the people looking at the google doc, and by show I mean it's showing all of the other google accounts looking at that document and that shit is literally your email address. Is your email address total nonsense that doesn't have anything to do with your personal identity? Great! But for most it's not. Most people are automatically signed into their primary FirstNameLastName emails on their phones or computers by default and unless you're really good at juggling accounts to ensure you're not currently signed into your FirstNameLastName account then you should just do yourself a favor and never click a google doc link.

10. Stop fricking talking about yourself. Don't tell people how old you are. Don't tell people where you live. Don't tell people about that time your grandpa was in the news for saving a cat from a tree. Is your cousin famous? Great! Don't fricking tell people about it. One inane detail about your life isn't going to get you doxxed but 5 might, and if you piss off the wrong person they will be going through every comment you ever made in your entire life piecing together all of the little tidbits you dropped about yourself and all of those details might piece together enough for someone find out who you are.

Don't do any of the many things I mentioned and maybe an r-slured incel on Groomercord won't post all of your shit on Kiwifarms! OMG HOW FUN

What if I have already been doxxed?

THEN YOU'RE FREE! I will not lie to you and say that people haven't done bad things to people after they have doxxed them but 99.99% of the time literally nothing happens. Why? Because no one really fricking cares who you are and doxxing is literally just meant to scare you. It's a scare tactic. Small people with small peepees call you by your first name to win an argument about Minecraft and that's about as deep as it gets. Do people get swatted? Do people call your employer? Maybe, but the chances of someone having the balls to do that to you are slim to none and unless you run a Holocaust Fan Club or perform some other egregiously awful internet spectacle no one is going to care what you do online and you shouldn't have your employer on your social media in the first place anyway.

I hope this helps and please for the love of fricking gawd everyone just needs to calm to the frick down.
