People have come in and stalked us, but as long as you have good OPSEC you should be fine. If your position is giving you worry, then I recommend anonymizing yourself as much as possible.
How to have a good OPSEC in here?
Try not to reveal where you're from, what you do, how old you are, and what organizations you may be a part of. It's important to determine your risk tolerance and threat model, I'm fine with saying I'm a Statesian but not what state I live in, where I'm going, what I do for work, etc.
Aside from the obvious stuff like giving up your real name and location, it is recommended to, when sharing personal stuff, to make up details so it's harder to identify you from piecing up multipliple tidbits, e.g. when talking about family say you have 2 sisters instead of 1 brother, if you're talking about a friends wedding say it was your brothers wedding, etc...
