Maintaining your anonymity
Some of us are older and arent aware of tracking strings in links. If anyone wishes to share links and wish to remain anonymous, make sure you delete any tracking strings at the end of the link. This usually shows up as "?=GHShsHsjxFsuv" or something similar starting with a "?. If you leave the tracking strings on and you used the share link from a personal acct, everyone that clicks the link can easily find out who you are. I use burner socials, but I delete that string out of good habit. If you see a post with a tracking string, alert the OP through DM and report the post. If you quote the link, delete the tracking string portion before you post. Protect your brothers and be safe.
Thank you very much as usual
Donnybravo is a truly helpful brother. On this matter of anonymity, online and phone is one thing but it seems the unavoidable part is the cameras now sprawling up in more and more places including hotel hallways, hotel lots, neighboring lots, etc. Perhaps overly cautious, but unless you're ride sharing every time (which is quite impractical), your car is going to be on camera. How long that footage is stored is honestly something I'm not sure about and probably varies from place to place. But seeing more and more news reels on TV of camera shots of suspects shows this is still something to keep in mind IMO.
