I honestly wonder at least a couple times a week if I should stop using my real name and profile pic. nostr:nevent1qqs2tcl492f4fcm2jtqsgx9wjh2hxe52qmeekan8y4k9y9zzjtrp7rqpzemhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2un9d3shjtnrdakj7q3qutx00neqgqln72j22kej3ux7803c2k986henvvha4thuwfkper4sxpqqqqqqzqqjpt4

in hindsight… taking your hardware wallet & laptop offshore fishing with you was a very bad idea https://image.nostr.build/1a9708981af1fa1a055101be589e1329b8fba5bacec118bd73adb4521bdd20c9.jpg
And the laptop. Duh. Of course you were going down in a freak boating accident. Nice move smart guy. Leave the laptop at home next time. Sorry for your loss.

I'll miss all of the sweet stickers it has 😭
It was 😩
You would need to start fresh and anonymous. This profile will always be linked to your name now.
Right. I can't just rename it. A lot of work has gone into it though. My name is essentially my brand. At this point it's too late.
Not a bad idea to start from scratch every 6 months to a year just to understand the experience
Probably time I do this. Feels very superficial, I will miss my followers due to interaction dropping off if I create and come back with a new account. I love having my notes read and responded to. I love zapping. Would be hard to start fresh and not give away my previous account.
Its not too late. For privacy sake you may have to discard this account and start fresh without your name. The issue is never connecting those two accouts. Would need to work on all new projects not associating with old self. Real hard, but more will go this route with as our governments try to paint us as criminal for freedom money and free speech.

When you start with real ID, it is almost impossible to erase the track. Even if you are an expert. You can use a completely seperate anon accont. But then you'll have to account to mange and there's always the risk of a slip up.
A bit late for that don't you think?
Correct
Derick Rose Nobody would know. Do it.

Der Rekt Ross (der = the in German)
Der Rick Ross, no one will know the difference 😂 https://video.nostr.build/026e425c5708c8af9c7e519f50afe1c553941241c534d4602c3b98235622aa35.mp4
I like being able to selectively reveal details about myself on here. The other day I doxxed my first name to you guys. This account isn't really anonymous, just pseudo anonymous.
We need a mass nostr account burning and restart. The Great Reset maybe?
Betcha a lot of us who used our real names & avatar pics are going to create 2nd Nostr accounts / keypairs - anonstr accounts.
@Eric Moss 👀
That was quick. Was about to suggest @ NotDerekRoss
Some bozo created that npub months ago 🤣🤣 And it was NOT me.
Easy enough to do, especially with Amethyst... I have 4 total accounts with their own nsec keys. I toggle all day depending on what I'm doing. 2 of mine are mostly for business @AMSOIL Lube-Direct and @Dynasty Wealth Partners I use for advertising /zapvertising... I see a note that fits, I'll copy the note ID, hope over to the other account then zapvertise them. Easy peasy. The 3rd account is my private one/anon account. https://i.nostr.build/Zyyk.jpg
Good strategy, but lol and yikes - you just doxxed your anon account by including it in that pic 😭
Sadly poetic how a Nostr thread about the perils of bad opsec leads to someone goofing up their own opsec, in a permanent / non-deletable Nostr post. 🤦♂️ https://i.nostr.build/OVVA.gif
Awkward anon account too 😅👀
Let’s just say he’s now in a hairy situation.
Definitely hairy over bald. Ewe.
Lol, if my phone with kyc is connected to a known internet the fucking feds already know my anon account. Not sure if there is really any way to be anon with the nsa, CIA FBI etc. They call all choke on a horse cock for all I care. #wildcard
The 3-letter agencies may not care about the adult content you’re into via your anon account, but you might not want people who know you in real life (via your real-name accounts) to connect things? https://i.nostr.build/wxxv.gif
Spot on.
I think it's gonna be a while before those IRL find me on Nostr, their too busy with ticky tocky, CNN, fox News and which stupid president to vote for. I have little hope for most people.

That's okay, I only use it so my personal feed isn't full of NSFW. That's all it's used for. Feel free to follow it, if that is your thing.
The only thing that saves it is the fact the most people don't pay attention and are exceedingly forgetful without reinforcement

Wym?
We all "delete" accounts and start fresh. Relay operators dump logs.
This is why if you want to stay anon as possible you just dump nsecs frequently
I do not use my real name here or at instagram. Usually try not to reveal it. But I am quite luckly that I have most general name in my country (first name and also surname are really common in here). 😁
Eh, they already know who you are. I sometimes feel the same why, but what are they gonna do, screw em. I'm Michael Sparks, they call me Wildcard. https://i.nostr.build/7VVe.jpg
We need "doxxed" people to move things forward in the real world. Being anonymous isn't easy nor possible for everyone. We all like privacy, we all want to be left alone, but most battles of consequence will require your face and your bravery.
I may actually fully dox myself one of these days. Because I've built a reputation on this npub and I may wish to tie that reputation to my real identity.

Elon?
Would be hilarious 😂
I think about this, too, but also know it’s easier to trust social media when you see “real” people. I think it depends on how you want the world to see you and how that affects your ability to interact with it.
These are fair points and I believe the success of Nostr Plebs and my travels speaking about Nostr at various conferences has benefited from being doxxed. I could be wrong.
All good points. I guess it also depends on the conference, which ones were they?
Fuck me. I typed them all out and almost hit send.
Uvita, Costa Rica Miami, Florida Toronto, Canada Riga, Latvia 😁
I wonder what those conferences were all about… 🤔
🤣😂
I think the not being able to delete posts is one of the strongest reasons to use a nym. We’re constantly seeing people’s old tweets being dug up from 10+ years ago when the tweeting culture was completely different from what it is now. So imagine 10 years from now, if nostr has a super strong search function and has become big enough where people dig up old posts…will the culture that’s the norm here currently still hold up then? Hard to say.
Haven't posted a picture of myself on the net in over ten years and my profile pic has been something other than me for much longer. I've only started using a different name in the last 4-5 years. Don't give them anything.
I regret leaking that I am a cat. Now everyone thinks I’m a pussy.
I regret leaking I’m a wolf. Now everyone thinks I sniff asses.
I regret leaking I’m a frog. Now everyone thinks I’m a French Canadian
You’re not?

Watch this mf be straight outta Montreal.
Dog, but same. I'd neeeeeeever do that...
Big if true.
It’s probably too late at this point.
