Dare I say it, this same thing likely happens on this very website. People seek jobs directly off hacker news, so those people are likely to avoid saying anything that might alienate a potential employer.

It's easier to just use an alt.

How sure can you be that your alt isn't linked in some way (IP, browser fingerprint, text analysis, login/out timing patterns, etc.) to your main? Or, if not today, will internet archives be leveraged in 25+ years when big data can be more powerfully analyzed?

If Y-combinator, given that they own that data, or anyone else FTM, is that motivated to scrutinize my past, it's a bad culture fit already.

But you bring up a good point: my online comments are likely to be matched and monetized against me as much as they possibly can - by superintelligences, to boot - iow, in ways we are incapable of imagining, given that we are not AI. And it's no doubt already happening a lot.
