  • I go by some of the ancient rules of the internet:

    Using your real name in any form be it in an e-mail or screen name is just dumb in practice. If it is used for personal use like you’re sharing it to insurance companies, your banking info. That’s one thing. Nobody online needs to know your real name at all unless you’ve got friends trustworthy enough that you’ve gained online that you want them to know.

    Otherwise besides those exceptions, you don’t do it.

    Don’t share pictures and especially nudes because you’ll never ever know who has seen them, saved them and shared them to others. Nobody will ever admit to you about doing either of those things.

    Have multiple e-mail addresses for different purposes and from different providers. I have 3 of them going. One is social. One is private/personal. One is just plainly for ban-evading that alternates from time to time or I just use that as a spam dumper or registering to places for other means.






  • In a perfect world, every dollar we spend goes right to the creators who made the creation.

    I would support musicians more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they aren’t, so I pirate out of spite against the labels for robbing the musicians through contract, how much they get.

    I would support movies more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they aren’t, so I buy movies second-hand from thrift stores and not the studios themselves.

    I would support games much more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they mostly aren’t. So I buy games dirt cheap and occasionally pirate.
