The astroturfing against this woman has been wild to watch unfold on TikTok. Straight up lies spread like wildfire from the moment she went public with it alleging a hidden first video where she admits opening the door when there has been no proof of that at all.
Then people started claiming the man published a ring video showing her opening the door and exposing him but there is also no proof of that.
Then they started posting a “screenshot of the first video” that was actually just a cropped screenshot of the video she currently has up
And apparently after looking for that image to add to this comment it looks like now ppl are spreading an ai generated photo of the door cracked claiming to finally have one true screenshot from the alleged first video she posted.
This all brings to mind how McDonald’s went on a smear campaign against that hot coffee lawsuit victim. I wasn’t engaged when the DoorDash lady’s video first came out but from hearsay it seems like people were initially upset and were calling to boycott the company before the smear campaign started.
This article sucks, no sources are linked and they didn’t even confirm whether or not she actually doxxed the customer. Actually the writing says absolutely nothing about doxxing.
im gonna be real if this incident is like the article described, why didnt the driver check to make sure the person was ok? if i was delivering to someone’s house and their front door was wideopen and they were naked unconscious on the couch i would be concerned they were having medical problems before literally anything else, that is extremely unusual
Lots of reasons as a woman NOT to go into some stranger’s house who’s naked and by the door, I don’t fault her at all for pulling out her camera. Shit, there was a story some years back of a dude leaving a purse in his open garage to bait people to take it and shoot them.
I hate that patriarchy keeps women so thoroughly terrorized that the reasonable choice is not checking whether a random passed-out stranger is ok or fucking dying.
i wouldnt go in either unless like i could see their lips were blue or something else super concerning like that from the door, i’d try to wake them up from the door and if they’re not responding id yell that im calling 911 (presumably this would “wake up” anyone trying to pretend to be asleep). i dont blame the woman for filming to protect herself either tbc
i live in a “castle doctrine” state so yeah even without stories like that garage guy im not entering someone’s home unless i’m absolutely convinced they’re in dire need of medical attention
TL;DR doxing ppl and filming them in their home and sharing that online has r.l. consequences
When you call a delivery driver and wait for them with the door open and your pants down I think you’ve waived your expectation of privacy
Are you defending the guy in this?
I think rather pointing out that Doordash didn’t just arbitrarily fire her. They’re obviously going to cover their asses from the lawsuit that would result from one of their contractors doxxing a customer.
Putting it that way it sounds better but the way the other poster framed it sounded victim-blamey.
i would need to watch the original tiktok but why was the driver sure the person was intending on exposing themselves? the article has her saying “they were sleeping”, was like the couch clearly not in its normal position or something? tiktok took down the original post apparently so im having to go based off the shitty article that barely quoted the original tiktok. they could have been pretending to be asleep of course but like this could have been a medical situation, really embarrassing accident, etc.
i do think the customer should have been banned, door dash isnt like a human right so losing access to it over an embarrassing accident to protect any other drivers in case it was someone purposefully exposing themselves makes sense. the driver shouldnt have lost her job though
I found a screenshot of the original video, or at least seems to be compared to the cropped image that gets shown. The door is wide open and he’s half-naked with a blanket or sweater on while on a couch that’s visible from the front door pretty easily. I think there are two front doors, one opens inward and the outside one opens outward, which makes it seem unlikely she barged in at all.
In hindsight she should have left to her car and called the cops, saying it might be a medical emergency or some kind of indecent exposure, but we have to weigh that with her being a doordash driver woman who probably doesn’t want to deal with that shit, especially when there’s maybe some guy-freak in the house nearby.
Edit: Also, she shouldn’t have posted about this stuff. It both doesn’t help her at all until maybe after the fact (if she got fired, maybe then try to get public sympathy). And it’s so fucking unpleasant watching someone express what she’s expressing in I think the 2nd or 3rd video that she posts after the first doxxing video she took and says she got fired, where she’s speaking in that exasperated Tiktok voice/countenance that’s hard to describe but comes off as ambiguously unwell and/or smug. My anti-Tiktok stance continues.
appreciate it! i do agree the tiktok vibe gets on my nerves lol looking thru her vids for the actual vid was annoying as hell. i wasnt really thinking she barged in, doing that for a contactless drop off would be weird as hell. i guess what i was trying to figure out is if it’s plausible that it was someone being dumb and not closing all their door away and then it swinging open or if the couch seemed suspiciously placed if that makes any sense. like the couch was directly facing the door or was it angled towards the tv? etc.
as for posting about it, I could see posting it as like a warning to anyone else who might run across this guy’s house/address that he’s a possible sexual harasser, but i think that carries too much risk publicly shaming someone who wasnt actually trying to do that. in a more just society i’d say this is something that should be put in as a permanent note on your criminal record in case you “accidentally” expose yourself to someone again (or hell if he had one already it would be clear this wasnt an accident and he could be arrested for it)
Do you have even the slightest idea how often housekeepers have to deal with indecent exposure.
