The Washington Post took advantage of the allegedly hacked data of individuals throughout the United States who donated to the Canadian Freedom Convoy and “Adopt-a-Trucker” campaigns through GiveSendGo. The result was a pressure tactic against convoy supporters.
The Post revealed the identities of several individuals caught in the reported 100,316 donations leaked in the alleged GiveSendGo hack by contacting them personally and then reporting their names. The report was headlined, “Which U.S. communities sent money to support the Canadian trucker protests?” The story targeted individuals throughout the United States who “sent millions of dollars to support trucker convoys that occupied the Canadian capital and shut down commerce at key border crossings between the two nations.” The Post used the data leak to bully a number of the donors via email or phone call, and even had the gall to dox a lawyer who formerly worked in former President Donald Trump’s Commerce Department.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The names of victims of the GiveSendGo hack were excluded from this report for their own safety.

Doxxing is a crime when you do it to them.

I don't think it was just an ethical violation. I bet a good lawyer could make a nice civil case out of what they did.
Class action time!
The state sponsored propagandists are doing the bidding of the government.
Every “journalist/state stooge” should be ashamed of what they are and do, but if they became true newsmen, they would not have access to all the cocktail parties and goodies dangled before their greedy, selfish eyes.
We know a name of the doxxer. Prior zrCMP, FBI, etc cyber work.
Would anyone be surprised if Amazon began to experience difficulty with truck deliveries?
Never forget the Canadian people have been relentlessly trashing the US since 2001. Never forget the Canadian people were delighted to jeer and boo the US National Anthem at hockey games.
Sure, free up snow boys, then come on down here for the beating you deserve.
The GiveSendGo folks should report the hack as a computer crime. Fed laws against that.

You assume they have a sense of shame. They don't.
Dump Commiezon.

Corporate feudal lords demand totalitarianism!
Old school Liberals are also being strangled and silenced by “woke” corporatism. The richest classes have learned to speak “Left” while in reality they impose a top-down neo-feudalism that demands total obedience without question. Big banks, BigTech are not the champions of the working folks. We are being rapidly demoted from citizens to serfs. If we displease our feudal lords, they will “dox” you, freeze your bank and social media accounts and threaten to send their “brownshirts” to burn you out. #RustyIrony, the old school Liberals are held in the same contempt as are the “Deplorables” and are as subject to being “cancelled” as any Alt-Right advocate.
I’d be glad to reply to any MSM query about it. “Please provide me with your complete name and title, personal email, phone number, and your home address and I will personally make sure you get an expeditious answer.”
It’s surprising that people aren’t more aware of it. And even more surprising that Washington Post thugs are taking advantage.

If WaPo has lawyers saying go ahead, just use the hacked data, they are pushing the envelope just a bit.
