Unless you take extreme precautions, throwaway accounts would be relatively easy to link, by those who run this site. Whether they care, or take the time to do so, is another question. Either way, it can't guarantee anonymity from the most sophisticated actors, it's just a way to keep differing opinions from turning into sustained grudges and personal feuds.
- creata 4y agoI'm fine with admins being able to link accounts; I'm sure that's very useful for spam prevention. But ideally, I don't want members of the public to be able to link accounts. Maybe you're right; maybe it is hopeless against the most sophisticated actors.
