The incident prompted Mark Dreyfus [article notes later that he is Jewish], Australia’s attorney general, to propose a law that would criminalize doxxing.
Isn't doxing already illegal in most places? Also, this wasn't doxing. 🙄
No, because most of the information shared by doxxing is already considered public information. There are jurisdictions that have an anti-doxxing statute, but those generally have additional requirements (suggesting criminal behavior, for example.)
