"If something embarrasses you so much dont do it"
As a person who has professionally done things that are "illegal" in most jurisdictions in the United States, there are plenty of reasons to not want just anyone to go through my digital footprint while still living. "Embarassment" is so much as I don't want to have a trail of things that can link me to certain business transactions...
I am 100% okay with everything I have ever done... on a personal moral level... I am not ashamed of it... (in fact, I am rather proud of it!)... but that does not mean I want others poking around in my business...
"Saying youd rather take ridiculous measures to hide it rather than to work on yourself. Is also your problem."
While no one is ever going to arrest me for anything I have done... (When they start arresting me, they have already finished with the "real" crimes) ... I do make a promise to maintain privacy of others.. if someone were to go through some of my digital trail, you might find things that would break that trust... That is unacceptable to me.... my word is worthless if I don't protect my customers... from whatever reason they ask for discretion. I don't ask why they do.. it does not matter... If they do, they do...
In your narrow understanding of this issue, you might think Wallanon is ashamed of himself... or his actions... personal convictions.. or... something.. I am not sure why you would even think this beyond coming up with some spurious attack to try and agitate him on some level.
While he does not need me to defend him, I certainly will defend his understanding of his own morals, ethics... and actions... If he wants to hide his digital trail, it is for his own reasons... that are well beyond what others (everyone who isn't him) need to know... I will say this though... I know it is not because he is ashamed of who he is... beyond that, what does it matter?
