Ask HN: What are the implications of Hacker News alt accounts being revealed?
5 by throwawayhghcj | 7 comments on Hacker News.
This post https://ift.tt/T7j56fW shows that many HN alt accounts have been exposed, not through hacking but stylistic analysis. HM famously does not permit deletion of previous accounts or comments. So for some people who assumed anonymity this could be anything from unimportant to awkward to a real problem. Presumably now people will routinely search for alt accounts of any HN commenter and bring what they find into the discussion. It’s not a hack, but in many ways the implications are similar to those of a hack. How do you feel about this? @dang what do you think?
