Forget Dangerous... it's down right irresponsible They list the guys entire family including kids and where they work etc.
Beside that the article has very little content other than "he's a little bit weird" an observation that is not exactly original, it's almost a stereotype that really smart people are often a "little bit weird" .

That's exactly my point. It's dangerous because she's made his address, car registration and all his family's details public. I'm saying we should raise it with the people responsible if we think it's a problem.

#20worst reporting I've seen. it implies this person has admitted working on bitcoin. actually that's not even true, if you read the words.
why on earth all this work, just to chose a real name? this does not make any sense. as if SN could not haven chosen a name to deflect his identity.
