Looks like someone built a tool to check your LinkedIn network for names from the Epstein documents. Soon I expect other tools will follow to work with other social media platforms.
This is what the beginning of community accountability looks like. Just because the legal system is captured doesn’t mean there are zero consequences.

Yes, I know I am mentioned in the files, but I can’t control when other people mention me.

@thedarktangent I am becoming increasingly concerned around a person being immediately vilified because their name was found in these files. Evidently you are well aware of this and I hope you share these same concerns.
There's random posts, articles, etc in those files - a script parsing for and finding references to name could mean literally nothing.
Last thing I want to see is something getting cancelled over this and we come to find out it was because a pedo shared an article that had that someone's name in it.
There definitely needs to be more due diligence here to make sure this doesn't happen. We live in a world where most people just read headlines which can be VERY dangerous here.
@syrupsplashin I totally understand, as I am mentioned in the files.
I was pointing out that people will find alternative ways to try and hold people accountable when the legal system fails, that socially disconnecting yourself from those you might have followed years ago will become a thing. It definitely won't be perfect.
For example I am sure over the decades I've followed some people who have turned into MAGA that I would prefer not to associate with. Or maybe there companies that are enabling fascism that I don't want to buy from anymore, but I lack the tools to easily figure out which ones they are.
Someone or some group will do the work, just like the MAGA groups are making lists on their side of the beer companies they don't like anymore.
