If you lamented the disappearance of the "old internet", well, this was a part of it, and now it may be gone too.

The title is also a fair bit understated.

They're leaking the moderators home addresses and work contact info (for admins, who are(were?) paid moderators)

Do you think that 4chan is going to disappear forever for this? Just wait a bit and it will be back.

Also where did you see that they are leaking home addresses and work contact info? I think they just leaked the emails (I don't understand why home addresses and work contact info should be present in the 4chan database, everyone moderating the site for free).

Isn't it a running joke that the Jannies don't get paid?

The initial leaker is most likely not the same parties as the ones tying email addresses and usernames to people's "real identities", if you look at the thread where the leak was announced.

Say what you will about 4chan but I am concerned for the team managing it - them and their close ones are certainly going to be exposed to a whole lot of viciousness soon :(

I think we can lament the old internet and still care nothing for 4chan.

I'm reliably informed they do it for free.
