I’m nearing 50, and it was drilled into me that anything you do online/write online could spread far and wide “don’t write something that you wouldn’t want published in the newspaper with your photo” Everything I’ve ever written at work even in chat is with the thought of a permanent record. Personal email, I follow same thought of posterity and publication. Even on anonymous forums I would assume it is possible to do an IP trace to me if someone got interested enough. Paper trail existed as an idea long before current generation, and I’m surprised the son of lawyers didn’t understand that better than most.
