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.

I know a lot of stuff like this is mostly common sense stuff, but I think it would be great if some internet/computer-saavy women would make a list of ways for gender critical women/radical feminists/LGB drop the T folks to protect themselves from TRA’s.
