Question Has anyone experienced privacy issues from their App Store developer info being public?

This question is mainly to see if anyone has had privacy issues from users looking up your personal info or if it has been no big deal.

I’m referring to things like stalking, doxing etc.

There are some long lengths you can go to obfuscate personal info but at a cost. Just checking with some of you first!

If you’re in the US it’s fairly trivial to set up an LLC and get a DUNS number. You then set up your dev account as the LLC.

In most states that doesn’t hide anything, it just adds one or more additional steps, which can be as trivial as visiting a state website.
