Reflections on Jonathan “Jessica” Yaniv, Someone I’m Convinced Is A Public Menace
I hadn’t imagined I’d be writing here so soon after the holidays, but this Canadian citizen’s activity of late has roused my curiosity, and since I’m commenting on actions that are public and not posting anything I could not obtain for fair use and commentary, I just wanted to get that out of the way if he attempts to get this taken down, as he’s pretty bent on silencing his critics.
I have contempt for this, both as an American citizen who is confident all of what I have posted here is lawful public commentary and more importantly, as a human being with something called decency.

To my knowledge, this is a Canadian citizen who is quite infamous for “presenting as a woman” when he in no way resembles one or tries to do so, apparently taking advantage of laws that let him wear a label he shows contempt yet cowers behind as a shield whenever he’s criticized.
He’s also obsessed with creeping on women, invading their personal spaces by using his “Jessica” gender identity as an excuse to be a pervert, has a downright scary obsession with female hygiene products (to the point he has solicited women and little girls with offers to help them insert them), and whenever he’s called on this, he has tried to use DMCA strikes and apparent connections to tech giants like Wordpress and Youtube to muzzle anyone who speaks out against him.
To prevent a spurious takedown by this litigious individual, you can see a picture of what I mean in the open post of this thread, which goes into a lot more detail about what I’ve stated above, most of the information his own words on these topics, most of which he even admits to:
Further, I am aware several female advocacy groups have been either hit with litigation or otherwise threatened legally for daring to criticize his public actions, and apparently he’s exploited Canadian law to get away with this, which, as an American, I hold in absolute contempt as providing a shield for someone who I can only see as a public menace.
Recently, what inspired me to write this post is that Joshua “Null” Moon of the Kiwi Farms recently announced his intentions to discuss this man on his Youtube channel, especially after Yaniv filed a takedown request for his Kiwi Farms thread which Moon flatly rejected as spurious here and told Yaniv he would see him in court if he wanted to make an issue of it.
The crux of Moon’s argument’s Yaniv’s complaints were nonsense was that Moon did not use his photos (of himself in various situations) with permission. When Moon replied they were used for purposes of criticism and ridicule, and since they are based on public actions and commentary by Yaniv himself, Moon asserted under applicable law (especially under American law) Yaniv did not have a leg to stand on to do squat to take down anything as commentary on Yaniv’s actions with images used in the context of discussing the subject at hand was legal, a position I find aligns with the law myself, insofar as I’m aware of the law as a layperson.
Moon has made clear he’s not going to bend to spurious legal threats by Yaniv, and when Yaniv DMCAed the Youtube stream before it even happened where Moon was commenting on the Yaniv topic (because of usage of a photo of Yaniv in a preview), Moon simply continued with his plans on an alternate service and even contacted Yaniv to discuss the matter during the stream, and Yaniv repeated his insistence he’s the sole master of whatever his photos are used for (despite any applicable law that allows their usage for commentary and criticism regardless Yaniv’s personal wishes otherwise) and quickly ended the phone call they had.
It’s at this point I have to say I appreciate what Moon did here, and while I admit bias as a member of the Farms, I have examined the evidence of Yaniv’s public activities and his attempt to silence critics, and all I can conclude is that more people should do as Moon has done and stand up this to, in my opinion, public menace.
I would also urge them to do so lawfully by raising awareness of Yaniv’s predilections via social media, news outlets, blogs, or any other means they have available to educate the public about the dangers he poses to women and all transgender people whose legal protections in his country of origin he’s perverting into a shield for being a deviant.
I further urge them to have the courage to not be intimidated by vexatious litigation threats, the truth is the best defense against any claims he might make, and frankly, I find the truth about his public activities concerning enough to discuss and I further encourage it’s spread despite anything Yaniv might attempt to silence it.
If I have erred or misinterpreted Yaniv’s actions, I invite him to post any information that might clear the record, and if said information proves me wrong, I will issue a proper retraction.
Otherwise, I post this in the hopes of spreading awareness of something I can only deem a threat to others based on information I have on hand, and I implore others who feel the same to spread the word far and wide in the interests of public safety.
