The conservative Supreme Court Justices that voted to overturn Roe v. Wade are being doxxed on social media, but aside from their home addresses being leaked earlier this week, TikTokers have purportedly shared their credit card information too, specifically that of Justice Clarence Thomas.

After the landmark ruling that took place in the U.S. last Friday, many memes surfaced on Twitter and Instagram that both satirically and earnestly shared the home addresses of conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito, Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch. Exploitable meme formats like My Child Will X were re-edited to innocently underplay the personal information being shared.


The doxxing was light-hearted for some online while others were concerned with the ethical implications of infringing one's right to privacy. Despite those who disapproved of the leaks, protestors organized in front of many Justices' homes in recent days, holding picket signs at the edge of their lawns and chanting their beliefs.

Through all the legal jargon about protesting outside a Supreme Court Justice's home, the law only prohibits the protest if it aims to sway a vote yet to be decided. In the case of this overruling, the decision had already been made and the protests were subsequently allowed.


Regardless, many were angered by the doxxing that some felt was harmful to American democracy. There were others, however, that had the opposite reaction. In fact, they didn't think the doxxing had gone far enough.

According to people like Twitter user @nighttrain2109, a waiter serving Justice Thomas at a restaurant posted a TikTok of the front and back of his credit card. Although the video has not been found and has most likely been taken down, many internet users are now reacting to the leak of Thomas' bank info.


Another video surfaced that purportedly showed Justice Amy Coney Barrett's credit card number. It was posted by TikToker @gylseg but was also removed after uploading. This, however, didn't stop it from hitting over 1.6 million plays before it was taken down.

Screenshots of the TikTok landed on Twitter by the account @commentsooc, which shares cringey and memorable TikTok comments and screenshots. Its tweet is what @nighttrain2109 replied to, providing the supposed information that it was a waiter who leaked the first credit card.

In videos that don't display the illegal information, many reacted to the development despite not seeing the videos being referenced. Some thought it was just "funny" to share the information. The prospect of fraudulently buying products with the stolen information seemingly did not phase them. Others condemed it and said it wasn't a proper form of protest. Some even reiterated that a 13-year-old had used Thomas' information to buy Robux.


There is no official confirmation that items were purchased with the credit card information or that the Justices' had to freeze their accounts because of supposed Robux spending. Regardless, the sanctity of private info in regards to doxxing has no doubt become a heated debate in regards to its use as a form of government protest.
