Lulie Tanett doxed me by giving private photographs of me, taken by her, to Dennis Hackethal, the bully who plagiarized me and threatened to sue me then blogged tens of thousands of words attacking me. Hackethal doxed me by publishing some of those photos on his website and social media while calling me a dangerous cult leader.
I don't share my photo online for privacy reasons, which Tanett and Hackethal know. One of Hackethal's audience members couldn't find my photo online and wrote: "elliot is such a creep, clearly unhinged and dangerous person, you'd be doing the public a service by posting his pics". That doesn't sound like a safe online troll to give my photos to.
Someone in my audience said they were terrified by the escalation to doxing (people besides me have been targeted with harassment). Hackethal blamed their terror on me (for allegedly lying about Hackethal, thus provoking him I guess – like "I wouldn't have hit you if you hadn't angered me"). Hackethal continued, "If you’re on the side of the law and peace, you have nothing to fear from me." Then his next sentence accused the person of libeling him by expressing terror about the doxing. Libel is illegal, so he seems to be saying they're not on the side of law and peace and should fear him. He's often accused me of breaking the law too. Overall, his erratic, escalating behavior is worrying.
This is the kind of threatening harassment which Tanett is aiding.
Tanett and I had a verbal agreement about the purpose and private nature of the photos. I wouldn't have allowed her to take the photos otherwise. Giving them to a harasser breaches our agreement and violates her limited license for use of the photos.
The location the photos were taken at is identifiable. After people already saw them, Hackethal cropped the online photos, making the location hard to identify.
We were friends for years, so it's a hurtful betrayal that Lulie Tanett doxed me. I don't know who else she doxed me to or what other personal information she shared with Hackethal. She hasn't responded to emails about this. As the photographer, Tanett holds the copyright and has the power to get the photos taken down with DMCA takedown requests, but she hasn't.
This is evidence that I was right that Lulie Tanett and others associated with my former mentor, David Deutsch, were working behind the scenes to harass me and encourage harassment of me. I made that claim in 2020 and I was doxed in 2025. Tanett is one of Deutsch's closest friends and Hackethal was the translator for the German version of Deutsch's book, The Beginning of Infinity. It's been around ten years since my last conversation with Tanett, since the photos were taken, and since she was a member of my online philosophy community. She needs to stop attacking me.
I reached out to Tanett for comment on a draft of this post; she didn't respond.
If Tanett, Deutsch or Hackethal has said negative things about me to you, please email me at curi@curi.us to share what was said. Additional evidence and documentation can help me protect myself.
