Every account you ever had, every post/comment you ever posted, now has your real name, a photo of you, and your address, all just magically show up on the webpage right next to each of your posts/comments (also, no “hacking” could hide the info). All deleted posts/comments are magically restored and nothing you do (short of permanently shutting down the website and physical destruction of the servers) can delete them. (Any edits would still show every change you made.) How fucked are you?
And don’t think about changing your name, or moving, all this info updates in real time. (for “magic” reason)
(You also cannot delete any future posts.)

I’d be fine. I’ve always been aware of the tenuous nature of being anonymous online.
Same. My friends already have the ability to easily find all the dumb shit I post online if they cared to and nothing I’ve posted would cause any legal trouble, just piss off some bigots and those who don’t understand that crude internet humor is just humor. James Gunn’s old posts have me beat and he’s still doing alright.
Did you know you can get someone’s address by typing in their email? Fuck data brokers. We need to outlaw their entire business model.
I stand behind everything I’ve ever said. I’ve been posting for years with the mindset that what OP is describing will some day be reality. I might not be correct about everything but I’ve always been honest. I look forward to that day and all the hypocrites being exposed.
Ah, my username is my legal name and there are pictures of me in my account. My username everywhere is my legal name, cause I think I lack imagination.
So I guess I’m fucked exactly this much, which doesn’t seem like a lot.
I generally get left alone. Everyone worries about their own personal problems enough to have time to bother someone random on the internet.
Edit: if I post my address, someone’s gonna ring my doorbell and scare my birds, so you’re not getting it. I’m in the Portland metro area though.
I really believe the things I say.
Just me? Or everyone, everywhere, all at once?
Noooo it was sooo difficult to find how to delete my Facebook account. With warnings like “people losing Facebook often loose their social life, are you really sure?”. And now my nearly empty page is back you say? Cringe.
But I’m not fucked, I try to treat people online like I treat people in real life, like I want people to treat me. I’m not scared of a heated discussion but I prefer to stay civil. So if people want to look me up, that’s fine, I make great coffee.
I only have issues with people who do not respect my boundaries so I prefer to keep them out of my life. But my mom already knows where I live, so still no harm done when my address is posted online.
All that typing doesn’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you’ll understand that.
Based on real life experiences with having random guys try to hit on me, I’d probably get a lot of guys DMing me.
Not all that much, as I already use my real name. I tend to only post things that I believe in, and I’ve never really been one to hide my feelings from people.
I’ll have some explaining to do, but I guess since everyone will have their dirty laundry out in the open, people will get quite more open-minded.
Also, people I care about know everything anyway.
I’ll be okay.
What the fuck, Pedro ?!
I’ll finally get my blog back! Also some cringy facebook stuff, but it’ll be worth it.
Im completely fucked, I have said a lot of things that are very critical of the “Israeli” government and occupation (I live under their occupation). Also Bibi isnt exactly kind to critiques, I would probrally be suicided the next day. After being revealed and it being that public id probrally have a few hours to publish a manifesto before a Mossad agent neutralizes me.
Meh. A whole bunch of cringe posts from twenty years ago will show how much I’ve grown since I was 19. Some more recent arguments I got tired of will rear their ugly heads. But I generally try to be the same person online as offline, and that person isn’t particularly controversial, at least around the circles I run in.
But there would be a lot of people who would be in bodily danger.
Nobody cares about growth. Cancelled!
