Like even if they have nothing else they could just leak IP is there any law against it ? Or any technical aspect stopping them ?

    A notable way to protect against this is to use a VPN. Then the operator only knows you use a VPN.

    Also need to be careful of what you write in comments (this is a public forum!). People sometimes write a surprising amount of detail about their life and it makes it much easier to narrow you down to a single individual the more you do it.

      Eh, have faith in people

      Even on Reddit, I was always 100% honest about living in Monetenagro as a Canadian Mexican immigrant. Sure life is busy as CEO of Disney but I always make time to attend a Lakers game with Leonardo DiCaprio when I’m visiting Panama.

      But to comb thru a large account would take a bot to look for keywords and frequency mentioned.

      So if you’re concerned about it, a less honest person could just randomly make outrageous but specific claims. Even when in the same comments and obviously contradictory, it would throw it off as long as you’re not constantly disclosing identifying information

      That’s how I was able to become Batman and buy a house in Tokyo anyways
