the probability that any given person I know in meatspace will read my comments on Less Wrong just jumped up by orders of magnitude.
Why are you concerned about this?
I've written things about other people without their consent, figuring there would be a negligible chance anybody could guess who they were. But now I think that chance, while still not huge, is no longer that negligible.
(I've also written certain politically incorrect things, but as someone working in a non-humanities field over 4000 miles away from Harvard, and who isn't going to apply for a job in the US any time soon, and likely not anywhere else in the Anglosphere either, I'm not terribly worried about that.)
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
