I find it highly suspect that people are crying foul now and not when the information was originally published in August. If it was really such a horrible thing, where was the outrage then? The Times publishes an old address, and suddenly people go apoplectic? I no longer understand.
New York Times DEFENDS Its Decision To Publish Name Of Darren Wilson’s Home Street
Under pressure to pull the dangerous content, the Times removed from the reporters’ article a copy of Wilson’s marriage license containing personal information, but left in the street where Wilson owns a home alongside numerous other private citizens that could now be in danger of violence.
Of COURSE you find it suspect. I do too! Strawmen arguments are very suspect!
Everyone who knew about the posting of the address was, indeed, outraged. Everyone, of course, except those on the left. And as more people found out about it, those people became outraged.
See, it's not very hard to become outraged over Doxxing. It is a crime against one's privacy, especially if you are a subject of death threats and promises of harm.
Further, until recently, we did not know it was an outdated address -- and frankly we do not know how much that publishing played a role in it *becoming* 'outdated'.
I no longer understand.
Oh, you understand very well. You simply excuse it.
