Well, I had several bad experiences. I once had a blog and some troll got it into their head they were going to find out who I was and tell my employer lies about me just because they disagreed with me. But I actually think this person did not want people getting money off their good ideas.
Ever since I have taken steps to cover my tracks the best I can. I straight up lie about things (I mean the story is true but I might change the players) so no one can put too much together.
I google my real name from time to time and ask google to delete links that reference my real name.. or social media (google has a portal to do that)
FYI e-mail can trace you. There are headers (metadata) attached to every e-mail that gives out your IP. It isn't smart to ever give your e-mail out.
I change my e-mail / delete them from time to time.
On social media I have one account for my real name but do all of my "groups" and talking under a fake profile.
