In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

I need to do an unfollow spree on tumblr and find some new blogs to follow because about half my dash is currently filtered LOL. So many folks have switched to other fandoms and don't post about anything relevant to my interests.

I've said for years that Twitter has become nothing but a hate site and a vector for harassment.
And now it's a doxxing tool.
Get the fuck off of Twitter, now. And pressure the organizations you work with to get off.
It's a danger to everyone's safety.

NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.
Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.
