>This work analyzes over 1.7 million text files posted to paste-bin.com, Veeky Forums.org and 8ch, sites frequently used to share doxes online, over a combined period of approximately thirteen weeks.
Never seen any actual dox on Veeky Forums or 8ch. Phone numbers at worst.

Just go to any of the shit boards.

>inb4 Veeky Forums is shit
Veeky Forums is a bunch of average IQ people larping as intellectuals. Now imagine a board where a bunch of low IQ people larp as average IQ people. That is every other board.

>opinions?
Doesn't seem very scientific or mathematical.

It's social science.

>Never seen any actual dox on Veeky Forums or 8ch.
You probably haven't been here very long then

>It's social science.
Which isn't science.

>Social research is a research conducted by social scientists following a *systematic plan*

It is a science.

>It is a science.
No it's not.

If it was it would have said "following the scientific method" instead of using weasel words like "following a systematic plan".

>>Social research is a research conducted by social scientists following a *systematic plan*
"a research"

Who even writes like that, social "scientists"?

>It's social science.
Do you think jellyfish are fish?

Eggman from /r9k/, and ex-girlfriends from /s/ off the top of my head, but I have no idea what they'd get over just 3 months.

social science can be science
like using probability and statistics to model how often people visit an ice cream stand every hour is scientific and also social

"""Doxing""" totally lost it's meaning.

Once upon a time, you were a hacker doing something illegal and showing off in a chatroom. People would dox you, and this was a bad thing because there was always federal agents watching and having your personal information get dumped means you just got busted.

Doxing some guy on an image board, is meaningless it just means some faggots on Faceberg and Twatter harass you for 2 weeks and maybe phone your house a few times. Big fucking deal.

lmao
underestimating social sciences is the surest sign that someone is a brainlet
social sciences such as psychology are extremely scientific if approached the right way, things such as marketing, influencing consumer behavior, creating addictive products are cutthroat fields where if the research isn't good, you won't have a grumpy professor refuting your proofs, you'll be out of your job instead
do you idiots have any idea how much social research goes behind, for example, online ads?

>social sciences such as psychology are extremely scientific if approached the right way
>have a grumpy professor refuting your proofs

>psychology
>proofs
lol

Lmao pretty funny and accurate

>t someone who hasn't graduated highschool
The scientific method isn't following the five steps taught to you in middle school.

my stats prof was a social science proof and that's why I believe in social science as a science but he uses actual statistics and shit
it's not just speculation

No shit. Only autistic sheltered brainlets think social science is just about feelings and opinions without any rigor. Statistics are at the heart of the social sciences.

>The scientific method isn't following the five steps taught to you in middle school.
Not an argument.

>>t someone who hasn't graduated highschool
Who are you quoting?

>If it was it would have said "following the scientific method"
That's not what "science" means.

Yes it is

>That's not what "science" means.
It's the only useful characterization of science; you might as well be claiming that gender doesn't mean sex.
