It's so much more than this, though. Even if you're ethically obligated to disclose your relationship with your workplace when discussing said workplace, are you ethically/legally obligated to connect your identity to your views on education policy, or on criminal incarceration, or on musical genres, or on the future of a programming language that happens to be your boss's favorite programming language? To reduce it to company criticism is to create a straw man out of the entire case for anonymity.
Now, all this said, I fully expect to be "doxxed" publicly at some point on my various accounts, so I keep that in mind when making commentary, and I hedge my bets. The fact that it was Google that has prevented me from discussing things on YouTube without doxxing myself, though, is truly disappointing. Maybe they're not losing any money by losing commenters like me, but if I'm ever inspired to create viral content that could make ad money, Vimeo's getting that ad money now.
