Thanks man! My websites (outside of Steemit) are being DDoSed by some of those same people you mentioned -- see my latest post, not dropping a link as I'm not advertising, just empathizing.
I've not done much on "social media" myself, although had a really nasty episode a couple years ago when I tried to help a YouTube personality who turned out to be a criminal. Took a bit of recovering from that, and no, not dropping any names.
However, that episode helped me set this one up with no links to my identity or information. Perhaps I should have made e.g. [email protected] instead of setting my own domain up, as angry whales can't take gmail down...
Anyway, I'm here trying to help, and getting attacked. Well, they say "if you're not taking flack, you're not over the target," right? We're apparently in good company... :/
Risk management FTW!!! :) Take care!
