The arrest warrant and the 2 additional children were not in the original article

Honestly if there’s an arrest warrant and the dude fled it gets harder to defend a burden of proof that’s hanging on a system that he manages to evade, though we’ve seen people genuinely just going back home and getting a warrant after but let’s put that aside.

On one hand i appreciate the deterrent that publishing his name is to other sex tourists, but on the other if he gets beaten to death because of it, or worse, some guy with the same name - I’m not fond of that either.

All that while honestly there’s already systems in place for fleeting criminals, not sure there’s much benefits feeding his real name to the mob in a very well referenced newspaper.

There’s confusion. I’ve maintained that to me, the goalpost is conviction. I cited an article that’s less damning for sure but I still motivate my goalpost by principles, not examples. It’s simpler to rely on an already established baseline, which is the justice system’s convictions, and I’m okay if that means that sometimes, a very plausibly guilty man benefits from undeserved anonimity

But you know, every time I say that homeowners should indeed face jailtime for shooting a fleeting burglar in the back I face the same people with the same arguments

People like to be tough on crime, but I don’t like people who feel the need to do justice themselves

There’s not much more to say, I just don’t believe in mob justice. If they’re not convinced back there 10 posts ago they won’t be now

“Don’t do justice yourself” was never a popular proposition

I’ve also said that slightly below, so.

He was always probably a pedophile, we’ve read the same article

You still can’t let mobs do the justice

Ill let you simmer that burden of proof comment real quick

I’ve never used archlinux

People who use arch don’t come here they roll their own instance

Iusearch.fyi is speedy and blocks no other instance except the pedo ones so it’s the best if you want a self-defined experience on the fediverse without rolling your own lemmy docker

Or perhaps he was framed? Or extorted by the guy who reported it? Or, he’s just a pedophile. Probably the latter

That’s why we rely on courts and allow people to defend their side of a story

Not comparable

It’s a matter of principle, pick any of hundreds of examples if you want a comparison

Again, not comparable

Some people

I never said “no matter what he did”

If convicted I don’t care

I just picked the first one when you google “media ruined life”

It’s a matter of principle

There’s hundreds of examples, pick your favorite

My hopes are low, let’s put it like that

But they were also pretty low for Robert Murat, so, I don’t like media vigilantism anymore.

Which is better in what way exactly?

You mean does the 80s-based protocol that doesn’t even support encryption support voice?

It doesn’t support having messages received while you were offline

IRC supports one and one thing only: N-wise chats to connected clients. That and delusional nerds who like to think they’re better than everyone else. Huge support for that too.

People who actually have sane standards for their instant messaging use the Matrix decentralized chat protocol when they need non-proprietary coms, or revolt

A certain people did the same stuff in Warsaw

The US is always so disrespectful flying their flag higher than others

I thought it was common knowledge that to fly two flags you need two poles

Capitalism… W…??

Damn Tucker should check out their grocery stores next

Sometimes some programs and some downloads have weird slowdowns like this when my VPN is on, even though others remain completely unaffected
