I want to stress a couple of key points, Anthony...
In this thread (and in others that I've caught up on), you accuse me of harassment (among other things). Well, you accuse other people who took part in catching you out on Wikipedia too, but I seem to be your favourite.
So I want to make something clear.
For years, you plastered your personal information all over the internet. On Facebook, on Linked In, on Wikipedia... you told your life story, your home location, your education record, your military career, your NARA career... and you posted many photos of yourself and your family.
On your WIkipedia user pages, you repeated the same life story. And you posted photos of yourself, which can easily be compared to photos on other sites under your real name. Those photos are now deleted, but they can still be found on the internet archive.
And, while you had yourself so openly exposed, you embarked on years of faking content and sources on Wikipedia, stealing other people's copyright materials and passing them off as your own, potentially bringing NARA into disrepute by claiming they were the source of some of your fakes, lying about and attacking honest people who caught you out, and running a number of socks to try to support yourself.
Was it wise to do all of those nasty things while having yourself so completely exposed?
Yes, I saw much of what you had, yourself, put on the internet. I saw a fair bit before you started removing it (like the lies and personal attacks you posted on your Quora account). Are you surprised that I kept records of what I found, in case I ever needed to defend myself against you?
But I never saw anything that wasn't openly public. I never once contacted you, any member of your family, or anyone connected with you - apart from our direct interactions on a couple of forums, which anyone can see. Your accusations that I did are blatant lies.
Seeing what you posted openly on the internet is *not* harassment, Anthony. Nor is seeing public information about government employees, which your country seems to be reasonably open about.
But I'll tell you what is harassment - persistently posting defamatory lies about other people, as you seem to have been doing ever since you were kicked off Wikipedia.
What really saddens me the most is that you seem to be too stupid to see how stupid and how transparent you've been in all of this. If there's any comeback on you for any of this, it will be entirely on your own shoulders.
Once you were kicked off Wikipedia, you were of no interest to me. But *you* started it up again at Wikipediocracy. And when you were uncovered there under your VindTax45 account and you stopped, you waited a while and then started up again here (though I see you're still active at Wikipediocracy too).
Had you just kept quiet after being caught at Wikipedia, none of this would have happened and your history of lies and deceit there would have been forgotten. But *you* kept going at it, *you* kept lying and accusing everyone else instead of accepting your own wrongs, and *you* kept drawing attention to yourself when everyone else just wanted to forget about you.
Anyway, I'm going to head off now, and that might be the last I ever say to you.
