We can use our conversation here as an example of something.

First, as a 'basis' of the non-privacy end of things; I don't use a 
privacy browser at all. I also use an NSP which not only requires reg, 
it also requires payment annually. OK fine.

You instead are using blueworldhosting as your NSP to post here and like 
most other people including me, do not expose your IP to the 'world' via 
the NSP nor your name and email.  OK fine.  We aren't that different. 
Your NSP has excellent retention and no reg.

If someone wants to 'uncover' your persona, they would start w/ the IP 
you connect to blueworldhosting and the 'clarity' of your handwriting 
which I have observed in your messages for years.

I don't think it would be that hard to uncover you; not that I am any 
kind of fan of dox/ing, but it could be part of a conversation about 
privacy that involves who is the/your adversary and who isn't.

My 'philosophy' is that I don't have adversaries who need to know who I 
am and so I don't have to go to any trouble for 'severe privacy'.

To me, the only people who need severe privacy are criminals and those 
who are actively fighting against an oppressive state actor; that is, if 
you do dev a strong adversary w/ some kind of power, you have a problem.

Typically the people who discuss privacy in such as the privacy groups 
don't actually *state* why they are so interested to go to so much 
trouble and inconvenience.  I do NOT believe that people do that just 
for the fun or challenge of it, but I also do NOT know what other 
reason/s they could possibly have besides the ones I mention here.
