Except in wasn't used for sole express purpose of helping people manage harassment, it seems to have been used a fair chunk to bitch about people - some of those maybe deserving, others definitely not. It then spawned a bastard daughter, wpinvestigations-l, which really was used for all sorts of odd purposes and bizarre conversations. This one didn't have Jimbo (as far as I can tell), and it only had a couple arbitrators. Some of the arbitrators appear not have been in on the cyberstalking loop, either.

So, for anyone who doesn't know, it's now come out that there was basically a citizens "militia" of sorts that created secret mailing lists where they coordinated their actions and presented secret evidence against those suspected of being affiliated with a BADSITE.
Absolute, pure, unmitigated bullshit.
This is a list that includes arbitrators and Jimbo and exists for the sole expressed purpose of helping people to better manage harassment.
You have been told this before, and yet you still posted this egregious trolling. Way to go, Alec.
