First, I work IT Security. I fully understand data and how it can be extended far beyond what most folks expect. The information that was used as part of Krissy's advertising (the ex cheerleader angle) was more than sufficient for anyone to find her name and likely home state. Combine that with a website like Pipl.com, finding her would have been trivial. We've got multiple pages in which the majority of posters are acting as if it was a holy secret to never be known to anyone. The reality is that it would have taken little more effort than looking her up in the phone book.
I work in technology too. I'm aware of how difficult it would have been for someone to find her information. However, the level of difficulty is irrelevant. What he did is wrong no matter how easy or difficult it would have been.
Due to a vocal minority, it has become pretty damned popular to hate Hof, and anything associated with him.
I don't criticize Hof because I hate him. I do so because I see him for the lowlife scum that he is. You and others choose to ignore that and defend him. Your only argument is that we are "haters."
Speak a positive word in his direction, and everyone wants to claim yer licking his asshole at night. Whatever happened to objective reasoning around here?
Where is the objective reasoning in your post? I see nothing but an attempt to suck up to Hof. You are acting like what he did was trivial. It wasn't. I saw numerous tweets from women who used to work for him condemning his actions. These weren't just from women who dated him either. If they saw his actions so negatively, why do you feel the need to defend him? Do you really put defending Dennis ahead of the potential harm that could result from this situation? Does his business matter to you more than a young woman's life? That is how your statements come across.
You also ignored (again) the fact that he harassed her by tweeting the information to her college's Twitter account. This isn't just about outing her information. He also actively transmitted that information to people who may not have been aware that she was in LPIN in an attempt to do harm.
Lastly, let's look at the situation. Dennis is a businessman first and foremost.
No, he isn't. Businessmen don't date and sleep with those who work for them. Those things create too many potential liabilities, which would be a concern to someone who put the business first.
Paying your bills and debts is everything. Seeing the ladies are paid is even more important. Now a former girlfriend is claiming she wasn't paid, and he's being attacked here, and on twitter. An extremely public accusation that impacts his clients and any of his current or future working ladies. It's a pretty fucking serious accusation for him. Guess what? It was all Krissy's mistake. I can see why he's pretty fucking pissed. I can see why he snapped a picture and posted it on twitter without a second though.
Krissy was not wrong. This claim has already been disputed in this thread
here. Why do you continue to act like it hasn't? He has absolutely no right to be mad. I believe that what Krissy said was true from the beginning. Her retraction and apology were likely coerced in exchange for actually getting paid. That isn't the first time he has done something similar.
Doesn't make it right. It was a stupid move on his part, and should never have happened. I don't think he really understands how easily information is available on the web, nor how many perverts or twisted minds are out there. He needs to get smarter about it pretty damned fast before one of his ladies gets hurt badly. Unfortunately I don't think he will learn until it blows up in his face.
You act as if this was a simple mistake on his part rather than an extremely unethical act. I doubt it will ever blow up in his face. He has too many defenders like you for that to happen.
