It was clear that he would get unbanned, it is nonsense that he got banned because he posted gavins gmail address
Xio is insisting that the ban was due to /u/nullc's 'doxing' of Cypherdoc (aka Marc Lowe).
This has nothing to do with Gavin and you know it. Stop perpetuating that lie. It's about the doxing of the defendant in the Hashfast case.
The reality and truth of the matter is that it had nothing to do with Gavin's email, which Greg knows about.
It's all a bit pathetic, but I was interested in Xio's
nullc clearly was doxing a person that isn't a public persona
'Public persona' is a non sequitur here, the applicable phrase is simply a "public figure".
Reddit says posting rules can be different for a public figure
Is posting someone's private or personal information okay?
No. Reddit is quite open and pro-free speech, but it is not okay to post someone's personal information, or post links to personal information....Public figures can be an exception to this rule...
Define Public Figure?
There's two "degrees" of such status, regular and limited purpose.
A limited purpose public figure is someone who is not so famous as to be a household name, but who has become well known with regard to a particular issue.
"A particular issue"?
Like a court case dealing with the legal definition of whether Bitcoins are a commodity or currency, where the two identities of the main character are publicly linked in court documents and on thousands of web pages?
