I stick with my pseudonym. I don't go to great lengths to protect 
my identity. You could probably figure out my name and address if 
you really wanted to. The concern isn't so much the government, 
but other individuals doing harm to you.

We live in a world which is very politically correct, and on the 
other hand there are a lot of people who are just mean. You're 
much safer if you make a point not to give out too much personal 
information in public spaces. Brendan Eich is probably the best 
example I know of where someone lost their job for not having the 
right opinions.
