What does social media include? Will I have to list my HN and reddit usernames? What about throwaways, am I expected to list those too?

Would be nice if HN gave the ability to delete your account for people who need that option.

I asked HN about changing my handle which I made long back, they said something similar to "we dont have the technical expertise to change it". If an HN moderator is reading this. Well its for you.

Or temporarily delete it even, while you're under scrutiny.

What about anonymous social media like 4chan? Would they settle for a list of post URLs?
