I don’t think anyone is under the illusion that using a screen name could stop the likes of the NSA from connecting to your real identity. The regime just doesn’t like people having the audacity to not even conceal themselves.

It's the little guys that worry me. The petty bureaucrats that want to ingratiate themselves with the regime and see you as an easy target. The FBI and NSA already know who I am.

Screen names make it much more difficult for lay users to determine who the author is.

The NSA is surely capable but, if you're that deep in, its unlikely that you haven't already had a visit from Men in Black.
