A hypothetical question...
Suppose that someone had left an easy-to-follow and very long trail of information on the Internet, some of which established his real-life identity.
Suppose that person was "a person of interest" for already having been convicted of certain crimes.
Suppose that person later made a statement on another forum which clearly established/admitted his guilt in "conspiring to violate" a law which was closely related to that which the person had earlier been convicted of -- something which could be expected to immediately draw the attention of the authorities, who most certainly were monitoring the site in question.
Suppose that same person purportedly sought to change his identity on a new forum he had joined, in order to avoid that trail following him. And suppose that this (purported) attempt was patently ineffective, as a simple search would establish.
Would such a person be liable to be pressured by the authorities into cooperating with the authorities in undermining activities on other forums which the authorities disapprove of?
Should a person in that a situation be trusted in administrative positions on other forums which the authorities disapprove of?
