The work is urgent. But also dangerous.
What’s the right way to out an insurrectionist online? https://t.co/ZkOPfSdxTW
Dating apps are freezing out rioters with help from law enforcement — &, in some cases, their own photos. Other app users have taken matters into their own hands by striking up conversations with potential rioters and relaying their information to the FBI.https://t.co/D47eSsIqf5

It’s hard not to laugh at this ? “Bumble removed its political filter after people said they used it to lure conservatives who were at the Capitol riot into sending incriminating evidence”: https://t.co/SGTaOOgtiY

The uprising has sparked a tense debate about the right way to stitch together the digital scraps of someone's life to publicly accuse them of committing a crime https://t.co/3sGCGNYj11

It is important for professional/experienced researchers to create systems where tips can be sent offline or privately so the names of innocent people are not circulated online. Amateurs need to be very careful and platforms should be prepared to apply rules against doxxing. https://t.co/IjrQd1rkPx

I feel like we need a different word than “doxxing” here. It may be functionally the same process, but posting private information because you don’t like someone is a lot different than aiding in an ongoing criminal investigation and probably should have its own word. https://t.co/fflYP8zvFL

RT @Techmeme: Dating apps like Tinder and Bumble are banning users identified in photos from the Capitol riot, and some users are relaying incriminating evidence to the FBI (Washington Post)https://t.co/OArsJth5EGhttps://t.co/CGI2PARnf0
Just to be clear, I do believe the reason why we are in this situation is because the DC law enforcement, FBI, and DHS failed the country on Jan 6th. That is driving many researchers and activists to work on piecing this all together. Many fear that will happen again. https://t.co/IzMBGxO8YN

I think there’s another undercurrent here at play as well though: That we don’t trust law enforcement to do the work. https://t.co/KQDG84oBhX

Bumble dating app disables political matching after women got together to match with white nationalists coup crew. They did so to lure evidence out of men bragging of their involvement in US Capitol attack.
