Practice question
A lawyer operates a pseudonymous account solely to reduce a demonstrated harassment risk. It is stipulated not to be used to circumvent law or CPRA, and no other violation is established. Does hidden identity alone establish the purpose-specific Section39 prohibition?
- No; the stated circumvention purpose must be established
- Every pseudonym is conclusively fraudulent
- The rule prohibits all security measures
- Only celebrities may use pseudonyms
- A hidden name automatically proves disinformation
