Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Publish it or fuck off
The fact that he's saying it instead of publishing is how you know he's not for real
Counter-offer: hacking wants that sweet sweet BTC payout.
Or baguettes
who's saying what?
edit: (read the article)
Maybe we don't doxx the witnesses, okay?
So, just let him get away with it then? Because, Canadian, that’s what will happen.
No you redact it first.
Any idiot with Adobe Acrobat can do that. It shouldn't delay anything.
The delay is that it’s not real.
Edit: the hack part
Agreed. Clogging up our news cycle with B.S.
Witness prolly has the very real fear of “they release it, he gets confirmed anyway, Gaetz throws the book at him.” Easy for keyboard warriors to chide this person with no consequences to themselves.
I can't remember exactly how it was said but, "The internet is all gas no breaks. Random strangers will hype you up and gleefully watch you ruin your life."
So black out the name and release it.
Then why perform the hack in the first place? It doesnt add up unless the dude is just trying to blackmail into $
I don't think that would have the effect within the legal system that you think it might have
Can’t know if it isn’t released
Still good to have it out there.
