I think you're trying to make a case based on what You remember and how you interpreted things, which people have interpreted differently
"Down on Request if it does not reveal more than you've shown of yourself."
This is really about what the community wants. The community decides. I've summarized the comments from those who have responded in both threads below to recap:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inq: The way I have interpreted the dox rule is that people can always request pictures of themselves to be taken down even if they've posted a similar picture before (just as long as it's not the exact same one). I don't think you can say two pictures are equivalent from a dox-risk perspective just because they both happen to look reasonably similar.
Sturm: Everything Inq said has been my understanding too, I think it a good policy. I don’t think our discussion is about changing the dox rule, the title seems dramatic lol but it’s a good attention grabber. It’s more about what we believe it already is. Perhaps Inq and I are wrong, idk but this has been our interpretation.
Lena: My understanding of the dox rule was: If it is your dox, you may request a mod to take the dox down. The dox was open to be anything covering pictures, addresses, phone numbers, social media of that particular person.
Lena part 2: I think you should totes have images that *you* did not post here or in discord taken down upon request
Med: ^ Agreed
Good: If a specific photo is posted by someone on SC by themselves, it becomes a non-dox photo.
if this photo is reposted by others while its a non-dox the reposts are also non-dox
if ever all instances of this photo in its non-dox state are somehow deleted (even those posted by others), then this photo is now a dox and can be requested to be removed if reposted again.
Ofc if another photo, even if showing the same body part/s, is posted by others, it is a dox.
Sugar: also since when is it up to the person who has doxxed someone else to decide if that person's dox gets removed? med asked for her pics to be deleted, it doesn't matter if lena didn't want that. the pics were of med.
Cain: But my thoughts are;
1) if you post on sc, and the image is reposted; that's fair.
2) you post on discord (even sc discord), and the image is reposted; not fair
3) nudes, sex videos, other personals, follow same rules as #1
Cain part 2: Likeness? Who gives a fuck about likeness?
If it's the actual user in the pic I what is relevant.
And image source; where the image is from matters. (Can reverse image search etc for information leak type dox
Tony: Long story short, the mods aren't considering making any changes to the rules. Personally I think along the same lines as Cain mentioned in this thread.
Alice: I don't think doxing is bad and should be allowed and requests to remove doxes should be respected.
Who's camp does that land me in?
Billy: i agree, each additional picture here gives more data to doxers. This is logical.
mods should respect the wishes of the user and remove the pictures.
Blanc: you should have a right to delete your own posts, edit your own posts, and take down any photos you want.
you should be allowed to terminate your account and it would erase everything you ever posted as well, including quotations.
and if someone else posted information that was sensitive, private, or photos that were sensitive private or doxxing in anyway, they should have the right to have that take down within 24 hours, including links, or doxxing social media.
and if they're posting it in the public chat the user should be banned
we have to respect people's right to privacy and we don't own the information they post, the photos they post etc. it's theirs and their right what they do with it and always their say.
Honey: If someone posts a pic of themself if if fair game to be reppsted by anybody. If someone else gets a picture of them, from their social media for example, and posts it it could be taken down by request because that information (picture) could dox their entire identity.
If a picture is posted that was not posted by the user in the picture, but it has been altered in a way that reverse search engines dont recognize and linkbto the original, it is now new information. If a user has already posted their face, untraceable other photos of their face are fair game that do not lead to other information about them
Spite: But everyone has pictures of themselves out there someone else posted that they can't remove even if they wanted to. That's just life. Remove those from here. This covers business stuff like Cadaver, photos that friends and family post, etc. Things you have no personal control over. Mods will have to use their judgment to decide if this is actually the case for whatever image is in question, because I'm sure someone will lie and say it's a company photo or a family member's photo when it's not. Just leave people who aren't browsing SC out of it. Otherwise you're probably driving people away.
Jim: No you faggots this is SC not a normie discord server / dox removal = ddos
