What possible attack vector is possible using just a city and throwaway account name? The accounts obviously a troll based on the attacks against other users when their claim is questioned.

The city alone will massively reduce the possibilities. As soon as you add any other information (political leanings, for example, as they're easy to guess), you can shrink it even more.

They may still be a troll, I'm just saying that being surprised that somebody doesn't want to divulge information when they've found it necessary to create a throwaway account is strange.
