Hacker Alias’

Hi all,

I hope you’re all doing well,

I have a question regarding hacker alias’. Of the famous hackers who go by an alias, like Julian Assange (Mendax) or Gottfrid Svartholm-Warg (Anakata) – do these people repeatedly go by their alias? Surely having an alias like this would reduce security for themselves, as if this was ever linked to their personal identity, then I guess all of their actions could be linked and they could face greater prosecution etc. But also it would put a new operation at risk if their alias/identity was leaked without their knowledge to the organisation they’re hacking?

If there’s anyone here with any experience of this type of stuff I’d love your input.

Many thanks in advance 🙂
