How do you avoid getting doxxed as an artist?
>>
Let me guess you draw furry, loli and similarly deranged crap and are now considering to do it for money?
>>
>>7336600
Make your real name public from the start. Can't get doxxed if you give up who you are from the start.
>>
>>7336600
don't be a retard
>>
>>7336600
Don’t use PayPal or any payment processors
>>
You are not a celebrity. Nobody cares about the artist behind the drawings.

I see artists who draw and say safe positive stuff get hounded. Dedicated groups that harass artists just because. And even if just a single person in a three letter agency gets a hateboner for you it's over.

do you live in some 3rd world country like south africa or usa?

Don't post finished work or anything with a recognizable style on here. Post purely observational drawings and fundies.

Don't do anything without a middleman and how those middlemen don't get databreached

Honestly don't interact with anyone at all. Just drop your art and dip.

You are not doing art for incels or are you?

for the nsfw to avoid doxxing i use a vpn every time i post lol. no idea if it actually does anything. make sure to remove metadata rom all your images, and have 0 link to who you are, be it passwords youve used multiple times, emails that connect to other emails, anyone who follows you in real life following you, dont mention where you live or your name. and dont be silly and use old usernames/ accounts linked to your real emails and shit
beyond that you basically have to hope no one pulls your ip, but you have to be witchhunted for something like that usually.

The biggest criminals are out in the open, they are fucking famous, CEOs, politicians, showbusiness people, but they are ahead of the curve, they just DENY anything and everything, because they do what you just said, detaching themselves from any real thing or legal document linked to their shady business or "secrets". If you took all the measures that you listed there, and yet someone pulls out your name, why would you care? If nothing real is linked to you? In the world of present virtuality shit's only real if you accept it to be real. People are still hooked to a past that's no longer there. This ain't the 2000's anymore. Anything can be faked, and forged. That's the world that is coming. At some point someone will hack millions of digital bio-metrics just to use real identities to forge Onlyfans accounts, because users will be tired of AI fake models. Unimaginable Chaos is coming, and normies won't know what hit them.

dont post on social media you stupid use pixelv, deviantart or bilibili if you are a sfw animator, the problem is that you a narcissist who wants fame rather than just doing art just caz
>>
OH i got one (doxxed one OF artist myself, so I'll enlighten you)
Don't use your real name in an Instagram (or any social really) account like a complete retard and advertise your work with said real name on said account, instead use an alias; otherwise this would be bad opsec.
Don't try to give a reason for people to dox you.
Congrats you won't end up on doxbin.
>>
>>7337355
VPNs won't really help IF you're name is attached somewhere to a IRL account btw; but they could help with other things, otherwise you wasted money.
>>
>>7337355
>Don't try to give a reason for people to dox you.
And yet, they'll always be a reason anons.
>>
They never believe it until it happens to them or their friend, lol
>>
>>7337543
It's funny because there's a whole image board dedicated to doxxing and they love going after artists.
At this point anyone that says they shouldn't care about privacy is just gaslighting
>>
>>7337556
that's just the contrarian hive mind this shithole site has going on. some boards are worse than others with it /ic/ is one of the main offenders
>>
>Mention nothing about your real life

>>7337556
Where?
>>
by not interacting with anyone or posting anything related to IRL. just upload your work, like and RT other ppl's work and dont give a shit about anything else.
>but you need to interact with the art community to gain followers
not at all. you'll get followers anyways no matter what.
>>
>>7337633
sharty or basedjack party, I don't know what the cesspit is actually called. They have a wikipage dedicated to just trolling /ic/ lol

People need to realize just being an artist has the magical power to make people seethe at you for no reason and the rate goes up exceptionally if you're skilled, popular, making money from art.
>>
el-em-ay-oo
all this baseless vpn shilling
i don't think an average schmuck on /ic/ would be able to set it up to be fully covered by it (and they're proxies for hire anyway)
what you actually wanna do is use as little software that requires accounts as possible. it's almost always what exposes people, after the obvious opsec oopsies like irl photos
don't use skype, discord, tiktok, watsap, etc
hell, don't even use windows if you can help it, because it comes with a lot of garbage preinstalled

Ahem data breach?
>>
>>7336600
the trick is to have no family or social life so it's irrelevant to you
>>
>>7336600
Just don't take part in those artist VS art trends
Is that easy
>>
Can't dox me if I want to be known
>>
>>7338930
What if you have lies made up about you?
>>
Use crypto idk. We're all fucked
>>

doxxers can swat, though...

Join antifa and punch nazis. These rightnoid doxxers will fear you. Messing with you means messing with antifa!

holy mother of ngmi. The picture you posted was bad enough, just look at the fucking punching fist and the eyes. Is THAT what happens when idpol is the only motivation for you to get into drawing?

That works until Americans go through mass hysteria over some nonsense again and pull out the "silence is violence" card
>>
>>7341083
I wonder why no one objected the art style during the production and publication. Just because you are a leftnoid doesnt mean your comic needs a unapealling art style.
Antifa super-soldier at least had an acceptable art style(because he emulated scott mccloud). Even if it's generic and looks like something you find in a newspaper comic strip.

Because any kind of standards = ableism, genocide and nazism.
Also because you can always say that the readers that criticize it are nazi incel tate corporate bootlicker bigot weirdo freakshow chuddie basement neckbeard cripple or something.

>>7336649
Nobody cares about the drawings themselves
>>
>>7336600
We're on the verge of not caring anymore about anything.

Social platforms in general doesn't allow dooxing. Even 4chan does not allows that. So you're safe.

Is that where all the old flags went? Loly wasn't that common 7 years ago outside of people mentioning that one guy who they claim "made it" and drew muscular giant loly
