/posthistory and /commenthistory need to be privated, hidden, or removed.
These features are almost exclusively used to harass people and get around the blocking feature on Steam. I am so tired of being harassed by people who don't even play games.

When I ask Steam for help with this, they tell me to make a post here. So here it is.

Just so you know, Steam Support, that when I make this very post, I am further opening myself up to abuse by my harasser that I have been reporting to you for months. I asked for a solution, and your response was to further open myself up to abuse.

I do not understand why it is so important for Steam that they keep this information so publically available. This is a security oversight that needs to be corrected.

Your "comment history" isn't public.

Post history is locked behind a Steam login.

And people can use LLMs to search all your posts without the post history page itself.

Lastly, chill out in Off Topic. There is no need for that kind of behavior. Block and ignore them instead. Do NOT engage with them.

They can, but that's not easy for the average user and requires a lot more effort than using a steam account.

It actually isn't. It doesn't take any skill at all. They just link a single post and ask for all posts made by that account and within seconds, bam.

If this is about people in off-topic that have loads of accounts used for unwelcome behavior, you can do a profile report, include all relevant information, and then just don't take the usual Off-Topic style bait threads/posts.

won't happen, post history is used as ammo by most of steams moderation and undercover moderation to harass and attack posters who leave creditable posts by trying to shame them with prior posts about unrelated topics.

Ultimately post history also shows you which steam accounts seems suspsiously unrelated to topics they chime in on. Offering you a quick look in the real legitmacy on replies which in most cases on steam you will find 0%

As the accounts seem to just look like bots or sleeper account that steam just uses to troll the forum.

no thank you

being able to see if a person is having a bad a day or just a troll is nice

plus there is no way to do this reliably

anyone can do a simple search and get all of the posts

This is like saying your public screenshots, workshop items, or reviews should be private if you private your account.

You put things in public space, and they are generally searchable because they are in public spaces.

what a convoluted sentence

things posted in a public forum are easy to look up

and posting history tells a story all its own that the owner cannot hide from

as it should

If it is hidden from others and they cannot see it any way, it's private.

Like you have no public screenshots, recommendations or other community items, despite having an account made ~august 12, 2023.
