It's not limited to online services. It's "Don't write anything you don't want to see on the front page of the NYT", full stop. Your internal emails and documents can be subpoenaed or hacked or leaked.

Also, your anonymous ID does not absolve you of legal responsibility, it just makes it a little more difficult to track you down.

I don't rob banks, run a slave trade business, etc. I'm fairly confident I'm not an interesting person, as far as governments are concerned.

If you want to try, I wish you luck in figuring out who my employers were/are.

You would be surprised at the people who think they were just doing something very ordinary, when suddenly a class 5 media shitstorm descended on them, often because of circumstances entirely out of their control.
