Streisand is giving something more attention by trying to hide it/cover it up. Different thing altogether. I'm talking about how people were raised in the 90's and early 00's. In the late 00's and turn of the decade in the 10's we saw a drastic turn against protecting individual privacy, with the rise and fall of various social media sites. We went from telling people to never share their full names to asking them to enter them on their profiles [0]. There is a cost/benefit of this. Many people on HN share their names/LinkedIn accounts/position in the company they work for. This allows them to network or have authority when they speak on a subject. OTOH, they throw away their privacy. [0] http://i.imgur.com/h7kZcxF.png http://i.imgur.com/h7kZcxF.png
