My view on the controversial topic of doxxing:

Name, age (in years), general occupation (without company name), city of residence - ok

Physical address, phone number, SSN, passport scan, birth date, company name - not ok

In this case phone number was shared, and therefore this is not ok.

I asked anonchatgpt.com:

What is legality of doxxing in United States in a case when it means connecting a real name to an anonymous social media account, without harassment?

In the United States, doxxing is not explicitly illegal in most cases. However, it can potentially lead to legal consequences if it involves harassment, threats, or other illegal activity. Connecting a real name to an anonymous social media account without engaging in harassment may not be illegal per se, but it could still have negative consequences for the individual being doxxed, such as loss of privacy and potential harm to their reputation.

In some cases, doxxing could potentially violate state laws regarding privacy, harassment, or cyberstalking. Additionally, some online platforms have their own terms of service that prohibit doxxing and could result in the user being banned or facing legal action.

Overall, while the legality of doxxing in the specific case mentioned may depend on the circumstances and laws of the jurisdiction where it occurs, it is generally best to avoid engaging in this behavior to protect the privacy and well-being of individuals online.

I doubt just mentioning someone's name online is a criminal offense.
