For instance, let’s say there’s a troll who is infamous online to the point multiple people are chronicling the troll’s numerous antics.

The troll in question lies about everything about themselves. Their name is an alias, they admitted to using an AI generated voice while trying to get away with passing it off as their own. They steal women’s selfies to pretend to be another person. This is just a few examples, but this troll has gotten posts exposing them taken down because the posts reveal personal information, but if the personal information is fake to begin with, is that against the rules on most sites?

Edit: assuming all the info came from the troll’s posts, that is publicly available.

    Man, some of you guys wouldn’t last a second on the internet like 10 years ago (not even that long ago at all). Just block them, ignore it, and/or move on

      I know right? Block and move on. It’s not the responsibility of the site to keep you from seeing him. Have a little self-esteem and handle it yourself.
