One of the most notable things about the internet is the double edged sword of anonymity. The internet allows many people the opportunity to explore interests or express their creativity anonymously, without having their actions tied to their true identity, yet it can also mean that bad actors can do serious harm to others without being tied to their wrongdoing. “Doxing” occurs when someone is “outed” online by having their true identity, often even including personal information like their phone number or home address shared publicly online. On this episode, we learn why cybercriminals might do this and how we can protect ourselves and our privacy while still reaping all the benefits of what the online world has to offer. We hear from John Boursheid, the co-founder of Removaly, an online data removal service he founded after his own experience with doxing. We also hear from Thomas, an avid member of the online gaming community who shares his own experiences with doxing, and Steve whose Customer Protection and Intelligence Operations team at TD works to protect TD customers and affiliates from online threats.
