This is the doxxer.
On June 19th, 2018, Sam Lavigne posted the LinkedIn profiles of everyone on the site who worked for ICE on Medium. He also posted the list on Github. He wrote in the Medium post, "As ICE continues to ramp up its inhumane surveillance and detention efforts, I believe it’s important to document what’s happening, and by whom, in any way we can."
Medium and Github quickly deleted the posts, saying it violated their community guidelines against doxxing. Twitter took to suspending accounts that spread the information. However, the dataset is still readily available in archived posts and the information is publicly available on LinkedIn. Lavigne told The Verge that he understood the decision, he thought "that the information is already out there, and if people want to embark on individual campaigns of harassment, then they’re going to be doing that no matter what.”
The post was was widely covered by news outlets The Daily Caller wrote about the post, condemning it and Antifa Twitter accounts spreading it. Fox News called Lavigne a "so-called" adjunct professor at New York University. It was also covered by Buzzfeed and Select All.
Online reaction was split down political lines. A thread on /pol/ mocked the action, with some using anti-semitic slurs against Lavigne. Some users on Twitter and left-leaning subreddits praised the move. @antifa_ne called Lavigne an "enterprising hero" (and was quoted in The Daily Caller) and it was spread on subreddits including /r/ChapoTrapHouse, where it gained over 147 points.

Why did the ICE employees post their info on LinkedIn in the first place? That being asked, it’d be gratifying to see that Lavigne fuck have some horrendously bad personal experiences because he himself got doxxed.
