Yes I agree with you that sadly this is the way people do stuff today. An allegation is more important than truth it seems sometimes.

That said, we must protect people that are having their information leaked with a nefarious intent. In Sweden for example, you can take this information find out their addresses and social security numbers since all of this is basically public information.

Github and Medium simply don't want their platforms to be used to harass and stalk people, which is a real problem that anyone with experience can attest to.
