That's exactly what I mean when I say that separating my private life from the public one was the way to go for me. I think that preserving your anonymity or privacy means restarting from zero every time you make a mistake.

It's safe to assume that my account's history would get you to a lot of quite personal information about me. The languages I speak, the country I'm from, the sig campaigns I've been part of, the addresses I've used etc. However, by creating a new lifestyle, you can now not link my account history to my private life anymore. The governments know I'm using crypto anyway right now, so abandoning this account is useless really. I chose to still enjoy the forum on my original account.

This is what privacy & anonymity is about, I believe. It's about learning from mistakes and resetting every time you make one. Acknowledging your mistakes and continuing to get better at it. Am I then to be called a "privacy advocate"? Or an anonymous user? The forum account maybe not, but I do have.. let's say "a separate face" that has nothing to do with my current account.
