Adelaide parklands campaigner 'doxxed' as home address shared on social media
A prominent advocate for Adelaide's parklands says having their home addressed shared online is the "scariest thing" that has happened to them during a campaign to stop the removal of trees.
Prominent Adelaide parklands campaigner Mat Monti has revealed they were doxxed, with their home address shared on social media. The address and photos of their apartment building appeared in a Facebook comment below a post Monti had made weeks earlier about Environment Minister Emily Bourke's appearance at the Adelaide Park Lands Authority.
Monti told ABC News that being doxxed was the scariest thing that had happened during their campaign to stop the removal of trees. They reported the comment to police, but were told no offence had been committed. Monti expressed concern about leaving their apartment building, stating they felt unsafe walking outside at night.
