hmm idk, only just catching up on this but it sounds like the guy doxxed himself, no?
if you are receiving spurious legal threats from somebody who claims to want to be anonymous but also tells you their name to legitimise the threat, I’m struggling to follow how you can “doxx” them?

Allen No . This is not ok!!!
Personally I'd publish any legal threat. I wouldn't publish a friendly but misguided request. The letter was formulated as a legal threat, implying legal threats could follow, but was actually just a misguided request. It makes both sides of the argument understandable.
So anyone who knows my legal name is free to post it on the internet and that wouldnt be doxxing bc i told them my name? Yea that makes a lot of sense.
I get that the idea here was to scould the person for sending "a threat," but that could have easily been done by redacting his clear name and just letting his npub / handle be public. Literally zero point in doxxing the guy besides being an asshole.
