Let's put her on that bitcoin hitlist site 'assassination market', or is that too much? I hate selfish reporters who only think about their own scoops instead of the safety of a person.

Are you kidding me? It's a shitty thing to do, but it's legitimate journalism. Journalists exist to find out all sorts of stories. Sometimes they feel shitty to some people but they are the bedrock of a functional democracy. We need them. even if sometimes we don't like what they say. And there are just as many people who feel legitimately about wanting to know who he is then those who don't.

It's horrible to even think about threatening someones life, just because they maybe did sloppy journalism. Even if it does affect him, it doesn't FOR SURE mean something will happen to him. If it's really him, he knew this day would come. Threatening to kill journalists is horrible.

Like Michael Hastings and Stanley McCrystal you mean?

I think Bitcoin is about to blow-up in yet another industries face, i.e. the lamestream media, blinded in its hatred of libertarianism is about to get a harsh lesson in the power of popular backlash, anonymous, internet style.

She's awoken a sleeping beast .... and there are some un-nice people inside this particular beast. I think she can basically kiss goodbye any hope she had of having secure computing devices any more, Probably she's gonna get electronically assassinated at the very least.
