RE: Ask Me Anything - Marky Edition - April 2022
Why did you choose to be an anon? Do you think people whose identities/faces are public, they have some kind of egde over anons or vice versa?
I switched to being anon on the Internet years ago due to all the data breaches and lack of respect for users private information.
Almost every site gets hacked or sells private data. Any time I can use made up information, I will do.
I also deleted all my social accounts, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and so on. It's just not worth it.
Every site I join I choose a random name and random 64 character password. Anything other than this is all downside and no upside.
When you are in crypto, it is evey more a concern. Look at the recent Ledger breach where their customer database was leaked or when Facebook sold all your private information to ad companies, even information they stated would never be sold.
Add in the fact I work in Information Security field, I am even more cautious.

Awesome. Thank you so much for the answer. Makes a lot of sense. Moreover inflation is going up and up. This can lead to crime rate going up. Not being an anon could risk your life and your family's life especially when you are in the crypto space. I mean to say that it's not just hacks that we should be worried about.
For the very same reason I don't get too excited and discuss my crypto investments with my friends except a few peeps I hangout and meet with on daily basis. People don't care about your life changing experiences. They will join the party anyway if they want to.
One more question, Do you think there are any downsides to being an anon? Are you and I missing something? 🙈
