anonymous



anonymous
adj 1: having no known name or identity or known source; "anonymous authors"; "anonymous donors"; "an anonymous gift" [syn: anon.] [ant: onymous] 2: not known or lacking marked individuality; "brown anonymous houses"; "anonymous bureaucrats in the Civil Service"

I received and email from my anonymous commenter last night. She basically threatened me of harassing her by allowing someone to post all of her IP information on MY website. She stated that she new her rights and that she had contacted her local authorities. I thought this email was extremely comical. I have chosen not to post the email, because obviously the posting of all her information was traumatic enough already, all though, I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO POST IT, IF I CHOOSE TO DO SO!

You are only SO anonymous on the internet. She came to MY website and chose to comment. When she did so, she left a trail of information. ALL 100% PUBLIC INFORMATION. None of her information was obtained illegally; it was all out there on public sites, to be gathered by whoever. If you do not want people to know your identity on the internet – STAY OFF THE INTERNET.

As far as claims of harassment, I give you the following statements directly from her comments (and I apologize for her grammar - or lack thereof):

“Crackers will be crackers though. We black folks know this, now if I sent a herd of nigga bloggers your way to let virtual fire up your arse you'd be crying 'can't we all just get along'.”

“Now little miss soapbox remember tricks are for kids, and botox is for crackers who don't age gracefully. So move on before you get your feelings hurt. I think I will do this blog some justice by sending the comments out it will at least give you some hits. So think of me as the Nigga Santa.”

“Fret not your just a blip on the radar but know you're on my cracker blogger list from now on.”

“Now you lighten-up oops wait you're a cracker so you can't. Don't worry there is much more haterade for you to drink, remember gulp trick gulp lol.”
She was EXTREMELY tough when she THOUGHT she was anonymous. She was also extremely tough in her email when she tried to threaten me, like I do not KNOW the law and my rights. You come to my site; you make comments and harass me? I have the right to call you out! You don’t like it? Don’t stop by!

So here is your disclaimer – if you leave hateful comments on my website behind and anonymous mask, I will allow your comments to stay. This is a public site and I have allowed anonymous comments. BUT, I reserve the right to post any and ALL public information about you that I feel like posting and trust me there is plenty and it is SO easy to find! You have been warned.

Happy Holidays!

I didn't even know what a cracker was until a few years ago, and then I was told that it meant a native Floridian. Let her try to sue, she has no case. I can't wait to read what she has to say when lawyer after lawyer tells her so.

Found you via Zazzafooky!

Too funny

Just let it slide off your back.

People like that won't listen to reason.

Holy cow! She did not really think that she was too anonymous did she...? we can find anything and everything about people who post out here. That is her ignorance, not yours.

I would ignore her from here on out...she sounds like she is getting a little scary.

In all the months I have been posting, I have only had 2 comments that even approach that. Sorry you had to deal with this, Dena. I ingnored mine, on the advice of a few people I trust. Hope this is the end of it for you.

Merry Christmas. Michele sent me this time.

Wow, what a wild ride! I think you handled the rude anonymous commenter perfectly, and I actually applaud you for posting her info.

The trouble with people like that is they don't seem to realize it is their own behavior which sparks prejudice and then fans the flame. Good for you for standing up to her!

P.S. - Thanks for visiting my blog earlier!

I felt compelled to respond, since you were so kind as to devote yet another post to me.

Now, let me correct you and clarify.

I said If anyone contacts me and harrasses me off the internet or on it then know there is a complaint on file with the 44th precint in New York City. Harrassment is against the law, threats against my persons is against the law. If the information you've allowed to stay-up about that IP address is obtained by some nut who wants to cause me harm, know that the NYPD has a complaint on file, and I will use them to make sure you or any other person is prosecuted to the full extent of the law. No threats but a promise! If you think for one minute I don't know my rights or the laws that govern civilized people then you really haven't been paying attention.

I don't know what kind of chickens you have clucking here, but if one of them comes harrassing me they'll see what roosting is all about.

As to the other stuff that keeps getting repeated on here AHEM . . .

You decided to post a topic with an inflammatory word in it, you had to know that it's still seen as a racial epithet, you also went so far as to imply a black mother would call her child that because he's a criminal. You don't know this women, you have no idea what she'd say to her son, don't know if she even uses the word nigga, but you used it, placed it in her mouth and you have the audacity to judge his morality? You're the one with no respect, no morals. You're the one who didn't think before you typed. You had to know that people stumble upon this blog, and it might offend. But nooo it's humor to you, it's just you trying to be witty. Pardon moi, because I see no humor in it, and I could care less if I stand alone, what you said was WRONG and I will continue to tell you that. But as soon as I use the same tactics you used by calling all of you crackers here comes the calvary. Dedicating posts to me, Finding IPs for what? Are you planning on coming to my job or home? Scare tactics? Please lol. I told you I have no blog, but you may inspire me to get one after this. All this was done because you needed reassurance from your posse, because you had no way to justify your lame post. You know you're wrong for what you said, then you want to holler "I'm not a racist" no you're just dumb and ignorant. People who aren't racist don't need to preface their comments, they just say what they have to say in a way that no sane person would take as racism.

Racism still prevails because of ignorance like yours. Yes I did what you did, yes I was wrong, but so were you. I make no excuses for coming off like an ass, being emotional and leaving reason at the door. But you'll continue to make them for what you did. I allowed your ignorance to take me to a realm that I rarely like visiting. And that's turning into an ignorant person too.

I just really get so sick and tired of people like you thinking that ALL black people say nigga, ALL black people listen to 50 cents, and thus makes it ok to for you to use that word any which way you feel, even on a blog. You make sweeping generalizations about others, but don't want them thrown back at you. Tsk Tsk.

Then for some of you to say "oh all she can do is use a racial epithet" how easy we forget that's exactly what your girl did.

I know it's hard to believe but not all blacks think alike, we don't all dress alike, and we certainly don't all run around calling eachother niggas. Some of us have chips, and some us just want to be respected and not have to deal with ignorant people like you. But of course if any of us call you on your own bullcrap then we're just angry and full of chips, can't possibly be because you're wrong and we actually have a point.

Oh and the excuse that because some use it, why can't you is getting old because I doubt any of you run around calling blacks niggas in real life. Like I said you have virtual shields and people get bold even I, but if anyone ever called me a nigga to my face they'd get schooled just like you are -- black, white, Asian, or Hispanic I don't care. That word isn't how ALL blacks affectionatly refer to eachother and to assume that we do makes an ass out of you!

I forgot to include this in my last comments:

New York Stalking Law
N.Y. Penal Law § 240.30 Aggravated harassment in the second degree.

A person is guilty of aggravated harassment in the second degree when, with intent to harass, annoy, threaten or alarm another person, he or she:

1. Either (a) communicates with a person, anonymously or otherwise, by telephone, or by telegraph, mail or any other form of written communi- cation, in a manner likely to cause annoyance or alarm; or

(b) causes a communication to be initiated by mechanical or electronic means or otherwise with a person, anonymously or otherwise, by tele- phone, or by telegraph, mail or any other form of written communication, in a manner likely to cause annoyance or alarm; or

2. Makes a telephone call, whether or not a conversation ensues, with no purpose of legitimate communication; or

3. Strikes, shoves, kicks, or otherwise subjects another person to physical contact, or attempts or threatens to do the same because of a belief or perception regarding such person`s race, color, national origin, ancestry, gender, religion, religious practice, age, disability or sexual orientation, regardless of whether the belief or perception is correct; or

4. Commits the crime of harassment in the first degree and has previ- ously been convicted of the crime of harassment in the first degree as defined by section 240.25 of this article within the preceding ten years. Aggravated harassment in the second degree is a class A misdemeanor.


Like I said if ANYONE is able to contact me because of the information you have left up (email address IP addresses, etc) I will do whatever I can under the law to make sure all person(s) are found and prosecuted.

And I'm aware that leaving comments up isn't harrassment but inciting others to harrass me (which you implied by saying you'd post up a now defunct e-mail address) or by putting-up that IP address or any IP address you think belongs to me saying I assume so others can come after me can easily be construed as a threat. I've printed all the comments on here, and all relevent information. I too know how to use "who is".

Now really I'm done I'm going to go my way and not come back here, but you too have been warned along with anyone else who thinks they can scare me with threats of finding me with I can only assume to harrass me.

Merry Christmas to you too.

I suddenly want to give you the name Triscuit. May I call you Triscuit? It seems so much more lady like.

Dena, you know I am feeling your pain...well, it's actually comic hysteria, but you know what I mean. Have a Merry Christmas.

I feel sorry for everyone who has to deal with that beeotch in person. Earth to Bee-otch: there are over ten million blogs. If you've appointed yourself chief blog policer, you better get crackin.

Congratulations on the way you handled this Dena.

Laura - if you don't like a blog, why bother hanging around, reading all the posts, commenting, coming back & answering other comments....? I find loads of distasteful & personally offensive blogs when surfing, but I don't stop there!

If you really thought it was racist you could flag it & blogger would shut it down. I have done this a couple of times, but not just because I don't agree/like the content!

I recently had a spate of abusive comments from BlogExplosion visitors. Dissenters are fine (often funny & asking to be shot down in flames - it is MY blog after all), personal insults are deleted, illegal material is reported to the authorities. Even if you try to remain anonymous (fake URL's/email addresses, mobile IP addresses etc) you can still be tracked relatively easily. If you just write "anonymous" in the name box you're not even trying:-)
