You might be asking why I'm airing people's PII in public. Surely there's a risk of hurting someone. Why not just DM people their IPs and show them in private without opening up a huge doxxing threat?
I considered this, but I had to account for a few things:
1) This isn't the first time this has happened. A light touch won't motivate people.
2) Public visibility shows how pervasive the issue is. It teaches a lot more people a lesson, and it teaches it effectively.
3) The Western world and it's allies are a turnkey tyranny, and I'd rather people learn this lesson the hard way now rather than later when the stakes are orders of magnitude higher.
