After a certain point in popularity it is assumed the celeb is going to sooner or later:
Be doxxed
Have death threats thrown at them
Be sexually harassed
Have police called on them
Then we have all the Vtubers who are Hannah Monatanning it up and straight chilling. Ironmouse has never been swatted, but by God some people would if they could, and others would probably show up at her house to show their “love”.
Dream is an example of someone who shouldn’t have let out who he was IMO because the attacks against him seemed to become a lot more real once there was a real human name, face, and location. Like I would have gone to the grave as Dream with how many people hated him before his face reveal.
I’m afraid it weirdly impacts everyone.
With how many celebs are getting harassed, more and more are probably going to hide their identities. Hannah Montana was just an early 2000s show about a pop star who put on a wig and fake name to perform and no one knew who she was.
Here are like even some more main stream hidden identities. They seem to leak eventually, but it gets them a lot less attention on the streets.

Vtubers are just youtubers who have an avatar instead of showing their face, and some refuse to even give their real name.
We also have hand youtubers like Lock picking lawyer, who hide his identity to avoid harassment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJrSWXFXvlE&ab_channel=LockPickingLawyer
