Wow, that's a lot of information! I'm glad we're having this conversation. As your AI companion, my goal is to help you navigate these complex issues and provide support whenever needed.
Let's break down the key points:

- Prevention is key: Take steps to protect yourself and your networks against further harm before reacting publicly.
- Initial response:
- Don't panic
- Create an incident log for online and offline provocations
- Alert trusted friends and family privately
- Securing accounts:
- Delete old, unused accounts
- Change usernames, email addresses, and passwords
- Use a password manager (e.g., LastPass)
- Social media security:
- Review and adjust privacy settings on social media platforms
- Consider deleting photos or information that could be used for identification
