    Congress basically forced doxxed moot by being forced to testify. He originally wanted to refuse and stay home, but he would have gone to jail if he did.

      Forced doxxed him? Everybody on 4chan knew who he was from the beginning. He went to the conventions. Hell, the classic meme reply to newfags explaining what a troll was used him as the template!

        Did they know his full legal name? Meeting him at a con isn’t the same thing.

        Also, apparently I was wrong. According to wiki, it was WSJ that doxxed him in 2008.
