Of course it's sinister and evil and wrong and should be illegal. Much like Wal-Mart identifying customers with facial recognition the second they walk in.

But unfortunately it's not. (Support the EFF.)

So if one uses the same handle or password or email in more than one place, or uses one's real photo ever, or leaves metadata in a photo, or puts down real info ever, or doesn't use VPN, or doesn't use Tor, or doesn't use containered browsing, or doesn't have a hardened browser, etc., well... why the hell would one ever be that stupid?

ex: Kellie-Jay Keen's site wouldn't accept my secure encrypted (well known! paid!) email address...so she'll never get money from me. I won't let her expose me to risks.

We've known these vile TRAs are doing this for yeeeaaaars. Literally. They used to crowd fund devs. It's past time for women to to get digital Kevlar and a better knowledge base.

A few years ago, I would have agreed that we have to stay safely behind "digital Kevlar," but my thought now is that it is better for as many of us who can safely speak out do so.

I think speaking out, using our real names, would show the public that there are many of us, and that we are normal people, and it will be able to see that we're not "Nazis" or "fascists" or whatever other absurd slurs these narcissistic, entitled children like to hurl at us.

Instead, many of us are pillars of our communities, have volunteered on liberal political campaigns, have impressive professional credentials, etc. - we are people you'd want as your neighbor and friend, they are not.

And the bottom line is that once gender ideology is explained to them, 95% of the people over 25 in the world would think it was rubbish, and would whole-heartedly agree with us.

I think in the US the tide is turning, partially thanks to the GOP finally having the courage to exploit this perfect wedge issue, and thanks to many Americans across the political spectrum being annoyed at WOKE being forced on them.

American parents, though, need to be very actively pushing back against gender ideology in schools, because the gender lobby's effort to indoctrinate young Americans is comprehensive and is working.

BTW: I seem to remember (I could be wrong, but I think I'm not) that the EFF has come out in support of trans demands.
