about why having your personal information, such as your name, address and place of employment, put on display on the internet could be potentially harmful to you IRL

Don't post things that can be linked to your social media.

Nobody has ever been murdered or assaulted from being doxxed EVER.

Why would be afraid a bunch of tryhard trolls now have your address when nothing can come of it...ever?

There are loonies out there that could do harmful things with such information. It is also a big invasion of privacy.

harassment of not just you but also your family, false complaints about you to your boss, things of that nature.

I wouldn't be so sure about, when shit like this has happened: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11986144/Teenager-bottled-by-ex-Countdown-champion-for-giving-his-book-bad-review.html

They weren't really doxxed in that instance, but it shows you what can happen.

People have lost their jobs at the very least, so obviously that can be a reason to fear it. Yes, some of those people probably deserved it, but it still disproves the claim that 'nothing can come of it'.

But since nobody has ever had anything physically harmful happen from doxxing ever in the history of humanity, why even raise an eyebrow?

I really post as myself, so CE knowing my identity wouldn't change much. It's not like there's something about myself online that people don't already know.

People could potentially just spam me and those around me with false information, but likely that would be too much effort and not really effective anyway.

They can stalk you...If I recall an FBI agent was killed because someone leaked her name, address, etc?

I already searched what "doxxing" is. But where does it come from? "Docsing", as in "keeping docs"? So it means "documenting"?

people have already mentioned "Swatted, stalked, killed" in this topic
the more innocuous pizza delivery prank where you order like 30 pizzas for a location is there

Do I really HAVE to mention more or are you capable of thinking of anything on your own?
