When the web was a lot younger than now, my daughter started a site for philosophers. People posted from all over the world and she was the moderator. She was in Philadelphia at the time working on her masters degree. One person from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia disliked something she posted and tracked her down. He found her at her graduate desk in her office at the university and threatened her. When she came to our city to be with us, he followed her. It took us quite a while to get rid of him.

My daughter taught me internet safety. I still have regular fights with Apple for asking finger prints and face recognition. Please be careful, anyone can read these posts, anywhere.
