Youtube is apparently rolling out a new change where when you share a video link it will share you profile with whoever clicks it.

Video with info on it here(CW: Reactionary/fash stuff on screen at times): https://youtu.be/oFx46sqo8O0

Everyone should be aware of this especially when sharing to something like hexbear. It can break your anonymity without you even realizing.

CW to that video for all the hitlerite bullshit

Yeah its crazy that they thought this was something people would want. Like it just pops up on the screen "Hey want to DM the person who sent you this?" basically
