So then we can't talk about Podesta or his emails? Trump, Hillary etc, the guy that walked into comet ping pong with his gun? You know that user agreement has only ever referenced bans for doxxing another user.
I'm sure that is all public information as it is just links to other sites. If you start releasing his SSN or banking information which is stuff not generally publicly available, that may be a problem.

Voat allows doxxing. This is paranoid BS

No, it's against the rules, and a user can be banned for doxxing another user on here, but a sub would not get shut down for it.

You can be banned for doxxing anyone by supplying private information not normally available to the general public... in general it's not cool.

Not that I recall. If it's a user, the admins step in. For anyone else, especially a public figure, it's never been the case.
