You might be asking why I'm airing people's PII in public. Surely there's a risk of hurting someone. Why not just DM people their IPs and show them in private without opening up a huge doxxing threat?

I considered this, but I had to account for a few things:

1) This isn't the first time this has happened. A light touch won't motivate people.

2) Public visibility shows how pervasive the issue is. It teaches a lot more people a lesson, and it teaches it effectively.

3) The Western world and it's allies are a turnkey tyranny, and I'd rather people learn this lesson the hard way now rather than later when the stakes are orders of magnitude higher.

How are you associating the IP with the pubkey? That's the only thing I don't get. Fetching media doesn't reveal the pubkey. Only publishing an event to a relay would. Did you write a strfry policy to do it?

Fetching media with the pubkey in the URL. 😁

And to clarify, I did this by DM, with a new account for every message, and a unique URL for every user I DM'd.

Oh oh do me do me! I connect through Tor. Curious to see what you can get.
