But now let's talk about the bad side.

Your tool is freely available for anyone to use. The very same person I am trying to bust for multi-accounting, is also using information scattered about me on this forum to track my identity and send me threatening messages on my telegram, phone etc.

Anything you put on the internet, should be considered public information for the rest of eternity.

This kind of tool would essentially be a weapon in the hands of such blackmailers and extortioners.

If that's the case, you shouldn't have put the information online in the first place.

Several phishing sites clone all posts on Bitcointalk too. I just do it without trying to steal passwords. Archive.org and Archive.is store many pages too.

In our country, our government is banning crypto, so if I posted my information here and if tomorrow some government agency wanted to track me down - then your tool is going to enable them to do that. And possibly land a person in jail for 10 years - just for being associated with crypto.

As much as I hate government oppression, it's not my responsibility to follow local laws from any country on earth. If it's illegal to use crypto, and you insist on doing it anyway, all I can say is you should be very careful what you post and ensure your real identity stays hidden. Use encryption to hide yourself

Now, I'd like to hear your thoughts about these 2 situations. What do you intend to do to avoid / solve such issues?

It's not LoyceV's responsibility to solve it. If you post something you shouldn't have - it's your problem. The government doesn't need LoyceV's site, they can just grab the info directly from Bitcointalk, Google cache, archive sites, or NSA hard drives.

Agreed!
I don't scrape Investigations, which is the only place on Bitcointalk that allows DOXing. If someone gets DOXed anywhere else, posts can be reported and the user gets banned. If that happens, feel free to contact me to edit one of the archived posts. When I do that, I'll also edit the filename to make it very obvious it was edited by me, and I'll probably create a log here. Until now, I haven't done this.
Another thing I've been thinking about is if someone posts something that's not allowed by my webhost. If that would happen, I'll have to edit it too.
I'm not sure how Archive.org and the likes handle illegal stuff on their servers.

I'm not sure what that means
