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.”
