It sucks for those people, but everyone should expect anything they say online to be possibly tied back to them. Secrets and identification information don't mix. Especially online. The good news is that there is no evidence any of it is real, anyone can lie on the site saying whatever they want, so if doxed someone can just say they were bored and wanted to fit in and see what others were discussing or such. Hopefully for them it doesn't turn into people getting hurt for talking behind someone's back like it often does offline.

fuck off with that complacency

there's so much underlying rules for private communication between computer systems, this type of thing is pure neglect boardering on international.

there's no reason to think everything online should be open and available. we should all be allowed to be in private spaces, especially if it's advertised as a private space

People complaining here that security was to lax, people complaining in the next thread that the libre dev is the victim because security was to high.

Is it possible to get both balanced, yes. But it will never make everyone happy.
