After reading up on all his lovely business practices, I made sure to get rid of 4chan from my autofill data. If I had bought a 4chan pass I'd be worried.

They have a forced Unique ID that is displayed on the site. Each thread had its own unique ID for the user but if they paid for whatever premium service they had, it would become associated with the premium account. He was keeping it to sell the data, which was discovered after 2ch was hacked in 2013. Since then he was actually kicked out of leadership and setup his own clone site that rips data from 2ch. Buying up 4chan with its premium service in place gives him a whole new marketplace for data.
