Increasingly online life and offline life and going to merge into one thing. At what point do we stop treating them totally differently.

If the guy was standing on a street corner screaming hate speech at passers by (Like the Westboro asshats) then CNN would report it, name him and show his face on TV with no qualms (like they and all media outlets do all day long as a matter of standard practice). He does the same thing online and telling us about his horrible activities is “doxxing”?

People like him are going to have to accept sooner or later (hopefully sooner) that if saying something horrid to people in the street would cost you your job, your friends, your family and your anonymity… you shouldn’t say it online either.
