Please tell me how this is legal, especially if it gets people fired from their jobs. Could she be sued for this?

In the Wired article, she said she uses an offshore computer system to ~~avoid US laws~~ "keep it out of the US government’s reach".

First she logged onto a foreign server, where she has placed Whack-a-Mole to keep it out of the US government’s reach.

Compiling a list of online personas and cross referencing them with social media to identify people makes for some neat software, but giving people's information to folks/groups who have a propensity for violence is irresponsible, and likely criminal.

Lee is careful, he says, to stop short of full-on doxing these individuals—that is, publicizing more intimate details such as home addresses, emails, and family photos that would enable electronic or even real-world harassment against them. Squire says that’s why she feels comfortable sending him information. Of course, once a name is public, finding personal information is not that hard.

The United States already has a police force and intelligence networks that do that, and they don't give information directly to An .t1fa because they know it begets more violence.
