Therein lies a further problem - the models I'm talking about modeled, or are commonly known by, their real names, or variations of.
For example (made up) - a forum thread/post lists a model as being Sally from Mayfair/Sally Stevens/Sandra Stephens - all names that the model has been seen to use professionally. The same girl, on her public (and I keep stressing that deliberately) social media profile page, can now be positively and definitively identified as "Sally Stevens". That's the name she goes by these days, and is a variant of one of the names she is known to model under. Would it then be fair, to make the correction to her name, using her social media name, given that Google etc would allow a connection to be made (between the 'real' person on social media, and this site).
Whereas a lot of models/pornstars made a relatively long career from the industry (and have no issue with people knowing who they are in 'real life') there are also others, who simply modeled for a short time, for a 'bit of cash' or a youthful thrill, who now may view that time in their lives as ancient history, with no wish to revisit it.
Should we assume (as is largely the case already) that unless we have been specifically asked NOT to post/id a model, that it is fine to do so?
A few years, maybe a decade ago, this wouldn't have raised a concern, as far fewer people were active in the public forum of social media
