The World Assembly,
Hearing of one of this digital age's newest and often most destructive misdemeanours, doxing,
Defining this doxing as when someone leaks the living address, legal or real-life name, appearance, or any other private information the victim does not want shared (in such a manner as the doxer shares it)
Defining' private information' as information not related to the online activities of the doxed,
Understanding that it can often destroy the lives of innocent video, article and other content creators or online influencers, or put them in great danger either through exposing them to violence from rogue parties, as online grudges and rivalries are common and can sometimes escalate, and also those who talk about controversial subjects often make enemies who can be intent on destroying them, or because some content creators/influencers need anonymity to protect them from an oppressive state
Understanding how the internet is in general a chaotic and sometimes toxic place which no one deserves to have unleashed on their offline lives,
Believing that doxing also violates various human rights, including the rights to privacy and anonymity, and, through the above effects, the right to feel safe
Recognizing, however, that in some cases doxing can be to the benefit of public safety,
Hereby requires that all nations part of the World Assembly must make doxing a crime and subject all those in their nations who dox others to legal consequences, of which they have a choice of either fining the doxer, mandating they spend some amount of time in a correctional facility, or some other criminal punishment that is commonly utilized in their nation, UNLESS the doxing was done to an individual who was continually perpetuating, with help from their anonymity, activities criminal in their jurisdiction of residence, the doxing was done by law enforcement authorities, and the individual's private information was only leaked to the other relevant agencies and individuals, not to the public in general

First of all, there aren't any other resolutions which ban doxing, are there? Also, does anyone know if any resolutions about privacy have been passed?
