I know at this point a lot of it is related to money, but there was a transitional time that led to this point that I’m still confused by.
What details changed about online spaces that made many folks more comfortable sharing so much under their real names between the “Be careful!” times to where we are now?
There is a signifignat space between “total privacy” and “share everything”.
Plus there is also a difference between being sniffed by some web crawler and a targeted motivated investigation. Just avoid being completely careless with what you share online, set up some an ad and tracker blocker and privacy isn’t that difficult.
