Yes. Early on when I posted the Steemit article about the Alefantis victim, my credibility was being questioned and I thought I would prove that I was a real person by linking to my FB. Since my first name on FB is not my real name and my last name on there is my husband's last name (I didn't legally take it when we got married), I didn't think it would be tied back to my actual identity. It took him a couple months, but as of a few days ago, he has my full name, my location, my profession, and personal details. My reddit account of the same name is 7 years old and my post history was combed through to find out small details about my life. I found yesterday that someone has archived every single page of my comment history on archive.is.
Live and learn, I guess. I won't be giving away personal details in the future.
God bless you, AB. I would have thought somebody with online experience to the extent you mention would have learned NEVER EVER TRUST A STRANGER online. Not even a 'nice' poster. You don't have to prove your integrity to anybody.
I wish I weren't new. Then I could downvoat the jewburger creep. First post I made was to warn members about the antisemitic shills.

Yeah, hindsight is 20/20 for sure. I could kick myself.
