I think this is not how wanted lists work, here in Germany at least. Do they work this way where you are living? The goal of wanted lists in Germany is to find the person the police is searching for to put them in front of a court if the prosecution can make a case.
Perhaps this goes back to leftist terrorism in Germany in the 1970s, they would not use the code names of terrorists on the wanted lists but their real names to find them, because this is what they wanted - but I don't know.
What do you mean "this is not how wanted lists work"? The goal everywhere is to find the people on the wanted list, that's why they're called "wanted" in the first place. Is there something in my comment indicating I don't believe wanted lists are for finding people?
"No, if they just put UNKN on the most wanted list, then it wouldn't be doxing."
I misread that as it either would be the thing to do or an alternative option and you were against putting names on a wanted list.
No, I was just trying to clarify that the "doxxing" part is not the "add $name to $list" but "tie $alias to $real-name".
