Exactly. And that's where all the interest for our information comes from. Because it almost feels like you're writing to yourself and all recipients are anonymous, you spill a lot.

I was the same. I shared a lot of (personal) stuff. Now I try to be a bit more thoughtful about it. If people would find out who I am, would I be comfortable with the things I shared. And can the things I share be compiled to something that points towards me? And then I decide if I still want to post it.
