If she's scared out of her wits, shouldn't she remove her blog postings, other than the last few that pertain to the episode with AirBnB?

It's not that difficult to figure parts of her identity from her prior postings and personally, if it happened to me and I was concerned for my own safety, that's what I would have done.

She's already lost her home and her possessions, I think that to ask her to wipe out her online life as well would be a bit much.

I've given her some hints about the ways in which she could tune her postings and some other little details that will make it much harder to track her.

The people she would be scared of already know her identity. In fact, they may have stolen it from her.

I'm not sure whether she is more scared of the robbers or the consequences of her publicity because of this event and going up against a well-funded company in a potential legal battle.

The companies exist because they have customers. Therefore, your statement is self-contradictory.

Give me a break - this is not Exxon Mobil we're talking about.

From her perspective it might as well be if we're talking about a company with a $1 Billion valuation versus a woman who is sleeping at friends' apartments to keep herself off the street.
