And cops can be doxed for harassment.
Yes. However unless it is about local police it should occur in a Group properly titled, not in the general forum. Participants should be respectful, no nasty alowed.
I'm never going to sign on to a group which is essentially anonymous but knows who I am, knows where I live, and keeps track of everything I post.
I would feel exactly the same if it were a conservative group.
Sorry to say this but anyone who signed up with this service is a fool.
I am a staunch conservative and have been on nextdoor for nearly a year. I give them a high grade for being and open and respectful forum.
I live in a conservative part of Texas and this has not been my experience at all.
Once again, NextDoor has proclaimed themselves advocates for BLM. Can you grasp that?
This has not been my experience. I had a run in with a jerk and a neighborhood moderator. I stood my ground and Nextdoor didn't butt in at all. Of course I remained respectul at all times. That being said, my knife is very sharp and I managed some deep cuts.
There was an event held, purportedly a Black Lives Matter group or sympathizer org, in a public park near me a few months ago. It was advertised as a protest. The park was dedicated to veterans, and featured a memorial monument at the entrance near a water feature. Veterans feared enough for the safety of the memorial that they felt the need to organize a group posted at the monument to prevent vandalism and destruction.
The promoters of the event on NextDoor were very open about their contempt for police and their supporters. They warned me that if I showed up, I would be taken care of. I have the screenshot to document the threat. NextDoor ignored their open threat and suspended me for asking obvious questions about what was being protested. Others who were concerned about the safety of the area, since this was organized right after several nights of violent demonstrations in our city, were also doxed and banned. You are not allowed to post about suspicious people or activities in your area, because you might inadvertently report a person of color, even if he is breaking into cars or destroying property.
So am I supposed to bad mouth a service that has been providing our neighborhoods with a good, open, respectful forum. I have to receive bad service before I will give a bad review.
Sadly, this may say more about your community than Nextdoor.
Conveniently, you won’t see the the posts or the neighbors who get suspended or deleted. So you have no idea if what you say about your area is as you suppose.
“You too, huh?”
Fifth time since I started posting last May. Two 31 day sentences.
Why would I having seen no evidence of it? Perhaps it may be in the major urban areas. Again I would not know since in my area they (as an organization) behave acceptably.
