I get the idea that much of it comes from the identity-changing that has occurred on most websites where all information is cross-referenced to the point where any handle you COULD use would invariably link back to you in some capacity. That said, I don't think this forum is doing that kind of metadata analysis.
The "they're filming me in a public room" line of thought isn't something people should encourage simply because the three-letters have only expanded 'public room' to be 'the entirety of the outdoors and some places in your home near electronic equipment', and on that line I can see the train of thought. On the line of posting on the anonymous imageboard where I choose to make my name into a Mike Matei Inspector Gadget joke, it seems like paranoia.
