The point was the person I was replying to made a blanket, ridiculous, statement.

Edit: I'm getting downvotes because SRS-types love blanket, ridiculous, statements. Sorry I forgot.

>stalk

LOL... Overreaction much?

To call "reviewing someone's 100% public post history through a computer" "stalking" is a real insult to victims of actual stalking.

Fine, use another word in your mind. Doesn't matter. Stop derailing. You started this bullshit by coming out with

> "It is creepy as shit to want to see women naked? No, it's not."

which of course, is bullshit as well. So why don't you try again?

Actually, it does matter. The fact that you used that word is 100% of the problem, and exactly what I was trying to address: You and others like you are confusing something that is completely harmless - reviewing someone's public post history - with something that is a serious criminal act.

Yeah yeah, bla bla.

It's fucking creepy (you know what, fuck it) to stalk people.

Yep. Stalk.

Following people in public places is stalking just the same. Why not following people on public post histories? Stalk stalk stalk.

Go at it, stalk people for their nekkid pictures because hur dur boobies amirite!

I've tagged you as a fucking creep, defending this shit is sad beyond measure.

Stalking is a term that has an actual definition (a legal one), and you don't know what it is. Because you're ignorant.

Nevertheless, I doubt any reasonable person would agree that reading someone's public post history is "stalking," and I know that no legal authority would say it was.

Excuse me while I go read Twitter and Facebook. But I'm not going to click on anyone's profile and read any prior posts, because if I go five minutes back in their post history, I'm STALKING, according to idiots. Wouldn't want the FBI kicking my door in!

It's used in a legal context, you mean. Just like "reasonable" is. And wow, we disagree on what's reasonable!

Let's see here. "You're not being reasonable, it has an actual definition, stop being a cunt".

How did I do?

Following someone in public places has an effect on them because they know you're doing it and being with them in person means you can attack them and all sorts.

Checking post history has no effect because they have no idea you're doing it unless you tell them. Also even if you tell them you aren't there physically to be a threat.

It's kind of sad I have to point this out.

They said it was STALKING. Read again then come back and delete or edit your post when you realize you're wrong.
