doxxing is about identifying a specific person and exposing or amplifying info
in a way that foreseeably invites harassment or harm.
Even a public work address can fit this
Especially with hostile framing.

Thilo announced the NAB 2024 booth:
https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2023-November/316474.html
Date: Wed, 1 Nov 2023 21:37:04 +0100
Subject: [FFmpeg-devel] FFmpeg at NAB 2024
Kieran participated in that thread on:
Sun Nov 19 16:26:22 EET 2023
https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2023-November/317199.html
This and surrounding mails also question a range of things in a hostile tone
So Kieran knew that Thilo was associated with the booth. And there was a prior
set
of critique pointing to thilo.
Subsequently posting the address and asking "Who does this address belong to?"
is IMO Doxxing
also, he asked "Who" not "which company"

Kieran posted the address in public. That was not neccessary to inform Thilo
about it
thx
