For lovers
What was that Emma Watson movie with Tom Hanks, and she worked at a social media company? I feel like we're quickly heading there where no one is safe from potential targeting by random strangers for the sake of entertainment, regardless of the consequences.

The Circle.

You should check out the book. Trashy read but still really fun.

If there really is a god, I damn well wish she loses every single bit of attention she gains from this and becomes the next Nikki Blonsky.

I still find it bizarre that people in this thread even read that twitter thread a few days ago and had the thought "this is sweet and by no means creepy or bizarre at all!"

I can't see the tweets but I get the gist, so I'll eat crow. I thought it was a cute story (though I wondered if either would get busted for infidelity, but [strike]GAF[/strike] Era is usually good with that), but depending on the kindness of strangers is folly. People are shitty.

... Nothing happened to these two people that doxxed this young woman? According to her twitter profile she runs a business. It just sucks that these two creeps decided ruin this young woman's life trying to be cute and gain followers. It makes living life a bit scary because everyone has access to the internet. SMH at these clout chasers.

I didn't check the original thread, just noticed the title change and took me a second to realize it was the same thread from the OP, super creepy behaviour.
Whoever decides to change thread titles need to develop basic communication skills. At least update OP with a short summary. Expecting people to read ten pages just to be able to connect title to content is absurd.
Its really pretty obvious.

Well this took a bad turn. That sucks.
It was bad from the get go as soon as pictures and videos were being released of strangers publicly and then stalker Rosey decided from the back wasn't enough so she took a picture of the two from the front and encouraged others to doxx them based on the info she released about them along with the pictures.

User Warned: Body shaming.
Fat and ugly with an over inflated confidence and sense of pride for her following on twitter, and a "good enough" boyfriend. You can just tell that behind all that faux and creepy excitement she was jealous of better people living better lives, which in her twisted mind justified the stalking.

Wait what the hell is going on, it seems like a cute story at first but now it turns to be something terrible after all? :O Need to catch up...

Edit: Oh now I see why everyone is upset over this. Yeah.

Eh, she'll move on and whatever dregs of humanity who've had their worthless interest caught will move on as well. She's clearly shown no interest in becoming a public figure because of this, eventually it'll just be the normal background level of gross harassment she has to endure.
what in the heck

This could have been a cute little story but went way way too far.

People need to be more responsible with what they put out there on social media, especially when it relates to others.

Hope the woman who got doxxed is doing alright. The couple filming the seat ahead of them are creeps.

I also don't particularly like what the people did posting this stuff online, tho they mostly seemed to be cool about hiding identities.

The doxxing is fucking disgusting tho.

Now we'll get an equally horrible reaction towards the op couple cuz that's how the internet works until someone way after the fact points out how disgusting it is that the internet went after them.

No, it's not. If you didn't read the original thread (which I didn't) OP reads like a giant wtf. I have no idea what this thread is about because it's clear I have to read a lot to figure that out. Now, I enjoy reading, but only when I start out with a general idea of what I'm in for.

You know, the very reason headlines were even invented. Sorry to derail the thread, but this isn't the first time I've seen mods come in and change the thread title to something that makes no sense based on what it says in OP. I'm sure it makes sense if you've been following the thread since the start, but come on. Not everyone does that.

Specifically stayed out of this thread originally because, reading through the tweets, it all just seemed creepy; but it seemed like expressing that vibe would have been out of line with the rest of what people (aside from one or two) were feeling and didn't want to seem like I was just coming in to shit on their interpretation of events... so on the one hand, glad to see I wasn't totally off base; but on the other hand fuck this has gotten creepy...

Yeah, this isn't the way to condemn someone for being creepy on social media.

I very much doubt the people involved had bad intentions but I found it all very creepy and none of my business. Reminded me of that other person who live-tweeted Greta Gerwig watching a movie at the cinema.

glad this backfired badly on rosey.

i was worried when her replies in the the original thread were mostly people egging her on. it's a shame tho that it took the girl getting doxxed and harassed for people to finally realise that rosey's thread was completely not cool

1.) This Twitter thread


It's a long Twitter thread and I'm not going to link the whole thing, but it's worth the read. Hopefully they got together :)

2.) The guy revealed himself
3.) Some people found the girl's IG (probably through him) and harassed her. She then deleted her account.

FYI, you can often find deleted tweets using google cache, just google the tweet's URL.

This isn't so different from those Youtube idiots who go abroad to harrass people. They want attention and people encourage them. It's all about them followers.

I knew this would happen and I'm not surprised in the slightest...creepy as shit, these people are fucking ghoulish. I'd excuse some 19 year old kid but not grown ass adults. The shameless begging for a Buzzfeed job and free plane tickets is on some Nikki Blonsky shit and is hilarious in a pathetic way.

It's funny seeing the comments on the first page here like "cute story" or whatever and acting like this is totally normal. Then a few sane people start recognizing how fucking creepy and weird this shit it.

So they harassed the girl who was nice enough to change seats and not the one being a creep and trying to be nosey in other people's business?
