For those that don't believe doxxing is a problem, it is superficially easy for a troll to fake an identity online, slowly spilling fake personal data, and then be "doxxed" to the Fake persona.

I may have done this 15 years ago to someone that I felt deserved it at the time, on a forum I enjoyed trolling and to a coworkers identity that eventually came through.

I'm not this insane anymore.
