The risks involved of naming someone have gone up quite dramatically. Today, anyone can take a random person and, from anywhere in the world, cause them direct pain. Swatting, slandering them as a pedophile, bank fraud, etc.

Sure, their names are “news” but how does the name of someone who made an innocent mistake help me understand the news? What’s the value-add? The “ROI” seems in strongly negative territory here.
