Ok...I will connect with these people. None of them are the mayor are they? I don't understand why everyone uses these alias names? I always liked the lyrics from "They call me the breeze", it goes "I ain't hiding from nobody, nobody's hiding from me".

No, none is the mayor :-D Privacy is an interesting discussion that would be worth several posts to write about. Some use it for security reasons, to speak freely without having to fear any consequences in their political system. Others just have an issue with the "transparent" society for philosophical reasons, kind of like the Digital Panopticon, an adaptation of Bentham's prison design made by Foucault to show how we're controlling ourselves. That transparency is, in my eyes, not real, but owned by Google, Meta, and all the other companies. It feels like freedom, but is constantly monetized. And even if I could trust the government with my transparency, can I trust a company that wants to make money? My small community, yes, maybe I can be transparent there. But especially in the world wide web, it's worth thinking about it.
