i don't understand how they benefit from telling us but i'm really glad they did. they totally could have kept that secret forever and it would have made the entire thing way less powerful

Profit. It's the hot news story right now and every detail can get harvested for views and therefore ad revenue. That's all there is to it.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 60 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Probably so they could spin up some bullshit about online radicalization or whatever

I too get online radicalised when my online loved one gets online cancer and is online denied by my online health insurance.
