People who are worried about this kind of thing can always email us to rename their account and/or to redact identifying information. We don't want anyone to get in trouble from anything they posted to HN. While we don't delete entire account histories (and take some heat for this), we do care about protecting users, handle these requests every day, and there's nearly always something we can do.
