How did posting online change from, "Be careful what you put online!" to many sharing a lot under real names? - eviltoast

I know at this point a lot of it is related to money, but there was a transitional time that led to this point that I’m still confused by.

What details changed about online spaces that made many folks more comfortable sharing so much under their real names between the “Be careful!” times to where we are now?

    Didn’t that site also end up banning a native american man because he had an unusual name and facebook thought it was fake?
