Yeah, this is classic conflict of interest. I agree with him that the United States needs to be able to easily identify its citizens for the sake of documentation, but also needs to provide protection from the data hungry horde of corporations, data aggregators, and now, large language models that hoover up every spec of data and identifying information that they can find. The problem is, archival and documentation based on public information really is the lifeblood of the kiwifarms. If he really felt that the aggregation of such data was immoral or harmful to American citizens, he would certainly be reluctant to facilitate it.
This is all nothing more than a deflection and a cope though. Years ago, when he was appearing regularly on Ralph's and Dick Masterson's streams, he would proudly proclaim "There is LITERALLY nothing wrong with doxing" and "People make a big deal out of it, but I'm doxed, and I'm fine." No, Josh, you're not fine. By your own admission, you're unemployable. Even an attempt at a name change was sniffed out immediately. People have hounded your family, friends, and people even tangentially related to you. You've lost countless business opportunities because of the irreversible reputational damage that you've suffered, and all because you've had your birth name tied to your online activity. In the modern era online, there certainly is something wrong with doxing; It's one step away from life ruination, and you know it. That's why you're so keen on managing your op-sec, and it's why everyone in America who has spoken out online against the progressive, degenerate zeitgeist of ivory tower technocrats, now owns a firearm. We've seen what antifa does to dissidents, and we've seen what terminally online psychopath sadists do to lolcows who overshare on the internet. This is just basic cause and effect. Even if this is all "public information", we have terms like "aggregation", "curation", and "discoverability" for a reason. Being obtuse by saying "We TECHNICALLY have a no contact rule, so it's all fine" is the most brain dead, disingenuous shit in the world. But you're willing to thread that needle, because you won't get a day job.
All of us with day jobs know honest hard working men that pull 60 hour weeks, with hour long commutes, doing back breaking work that would kill your fat, soft, cotton candy ass, just to take care of their families. I've seen the fatigue and grit in the eyes of these men who mutter "It is what it is, I have to provide." Meanwhile you blather on and on about how you're the lowest nigger to ever nig and god himself hates you because you can't find a way to make advertiser revenue off of SEO poison and crowd sourced reputation ruination.
