Not exactly, but I will say that I'm ironically more paranoid about online safety while everyone is less so.

I was reading posts in some forums I used to go to, and while I never gave where I lived (I was a teenager so that was a huge NO) I told people my first name and what city I lived near. Now... I think I'd be hesitant to even say that much. I also had public LJ entries that were very identifying of who I was if you knew me.

For me, it's not just fear of online harassment, but fact that everyone is online now. Employers, coworkers, family members, friends, etc. Back when the internet was still on the niche side, I felt more confident that there was no way in hell anyone I knew would find my forum posts or my Livejournal. For starters, half of them would have to figure out how to search on the internet. Now anyone can find anything.

So yes, I'm worried about online harassment, but I'm also hesitant to complain about work on forums when for all I know, my coworker goes to the same one or will happen to google search just the "right" thing.
