Doxlighting

A digitallighting tactic where the release of personal information (doxxing) is combined with gaslighting techniques. The doxxer claims they were “forced” to reveal the information because of the target’s alleged behavior, or they frame the doxxing as “just sharing public info,” while knowing the real effect is terror and isolation. Doxlighting often follows a pattern: provoke, wait for reaction, doxx, then claim the doxx was a justified response to the target’s “harassment.”
Example: “After she ignored his bait for months, he posted her home address with the caption ‘She should be accountable for her actions.’ Doxlighting: releasing private information while pretending to be the victim.”

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
