All because someone on Reddit doxxed me and reported me to HR over stuff I said. *sigh*. And it wasnt racist or offensive stuff. I was ranting about my work/boss venting my frustrations with him.

Sucks, man.

Anonymity on the internet is very valuable, but too often we take it for granted.

As much of a proponent as I am, I've had moments where I tell too much of my personal info here.

sue

Cant sue. Person deleted their Reddit account and they're legally within their right to do this. That and I confessed to stuff that is automatic firing. That's probably what nailed me.

Nothing. I confessed in a reddit post I allowed a shoplifter to walk out with a free TV because I was hungover and didn't want to stop him. I didn't think I had personal info. But, I had enough to get doxed. He found my Full name/DOB/City/State/Apartment/Facebook/Old Emails.

Makes me wonder if various loss prevention departments have a section to scour social media to find instances like yours.

That's fucked up, but silver lining is now you've got an opportunity to get a new start and away from a place that it sounds like you hated

I'm still curious though, what was the doxxer arguing about with you? I'm still struggling to figure out how a seemingly innocuous discussion about shoplifting could make someone so deranged to go and dox someone

Just plain old too much sharing. This is why there are no pics of me here. I am, at most, comfortable with sharing the general area where I live, because it's a big area.

Honestly, this needs to start being a thing. Losing jobs to stupid social media stuff isn't ok.
Eh, he supposedly admittedly he let a shoplifter walk out with something that costs 100s of dollars.

Provided the TC is telling the truth, the firing is objectively justified.

Ah... Yeah, the doxxing sucks, but this makes the firing fair. Sorry man.

It's an open forum. He openly admitted to letting a shoplifter leave with hundreds of dollars worth of stuff. It'd be the same as saying this on TV.

The doxxing was unnecessary, but the firing was justified.

I had stuff from years ago and they put in work. They figured out my name from a post I made years ago, found my city, found everything from digging through. Found a post where I said I frequented an old forum. He put time into finding me on said forum and breaking into my old email and dumping stuff I had. Sent lots of personal stuff I had to everyone via facebook to humiliate me. All this over disagreeing with someone. Dude even said He wanted to see my life ruined.

Isn't doxxing where people find your private info and spread it online? It sounds like this person read your Reddit post history and told your boss. Over the top and weird for a stranger to do, but a bit different.

That is fucking nuts.

Makes me wonder what I have on my account. Maybe time to just close it and make a new account.

Yes. My first name was posted years ago. Among my first reddit posts. Didnt think he found it but, he did. He found what city I was in based off a post I made asking for recommendations for restaurants. The rest he found by google and finding my Reddit username was similar to one I had on another forum. There he found everything he needed to find my facebook/employer/etc.
