"Doxing of people who just happened to be present that day, you know Other aspect that I would say has changed in my I've always had a lot of respect for someone like Alex Jones. Sure and And I still think that you know a billion dollar judgment for getting you know, his coverage wrong is probably a little excessive But you know Alex's main crime for getting that billion dollar judgment was Platforming conspiracy theorists who were saying things at the Sandy Hook people were you know crisis actors, right? You know discounting their experience losing their loved ones that kind of thing and making making a living profiting off of this Conspiracy content and Alex platform a lot of those people. So now I can tell you that my My viewpoint on that has changed after I've experienced probably just a fraction of what those parents, you know experienced From a lot of these same conspiracy groups, you know, and so I've had a big ship like yes So I think there was probably excessive in the way that that's that's shaken out for Alex Jones definitely but I can definitely see the other side and that this these these are valid concerns, you know with in the age of social media and You know there it is a huge problem it is a huge problem and These people are are like I said crowdsourcing the doxing and harassment of innocent bystanders and that that's a big problem Now I imagine it must be very emotional for you to be here today.
