This is how it is done, the hacker ‘Martha Root’ dressed as the pink power ranger and hacked white supremacist dating sites, stole their data, took down their sites and then proceeded to DOX members by making a map with members locations and information around the world.

You do understand that if their side does the same, you won't have any kind of moral high ground to stand on because you have already condoned stooping to their level?

How dare the US government, which executes people, tell me that I don't get to murder at will? Where is their moral high ground? /s

Do you imagine white supremacists don't currently dox people?

I can imagine that white supremacists do a great deal of things I would never condone.

something something, "If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them," something something

Wow, this comment was so hard to read with the something something which made me think it was condescending

From what I can tell your comment about: You are talking about paradox of tolerance (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance)

Weird moral equivocation. Nazis declare themselves enemies of mankind. They otherise themselves with their beliefs. It should be legal to stone them in the streets as non humans.

If "Their Side" did the same to innocent people who hadn't declared they are everyone's enemies its a completely different scenario.

Define doing the same?

Exposing racism? Where is the moral problem?

This isn’t exposing people for being white but for being supremacists.

If they also expose something of the same kund of wrong I see no problem, everything I wouldn’t call doing the same.

That’s like comparing police arresting people with criminals kidnapping people, both do kind of the same: imprison people.

Somehow I'm not holding my breath for this gal to be prosecuted under the CFAA. And then people wonder why the global right is rejecting the idea of the rule of law...

The implication that the "global right" has ever had any respect for the rule of law is incorrect.
