I'm very open about my devness with everyone in my life, but I still have some dark matter. I keep discussions of devness up beat and positive with people, trying to keep it in the realm of "it's just an attraction like any other" and "we're talking about consensual relationships with adults." Nothing weird about it at all!
But there are darker sides to my devness and those I don't express very often to others. My husband knows about them but I definitely don't want to talk about those things publicly because I think it would be too easy for some things to be misunderstood or misrepresented without seeing the rest of the picture.

Books and movies I wouldn't care if anyone noticed (easy to say, I don't have any ). However, I'm very protective of my browser history - there's only so many videos one can watch on youtube for "educational purposes"… Youtube is really annoying me with the way it wants to show other people my history and what I put on playlists. I've given up on monitoring it, but that's attached to my real name! If someone really looked closely, they'd see some very disturbing things in my Youtube playlists I have another pen name where I write spiritual essays and sometimes I wonder what would happen if someone from that world dug just a little bit and found my Youtube history.

Also, playlists can easily be made private.

I should log in to my dev account for this stuff, but it's so much trouble switching back and forth (darn you, google). So I don't bother and if people see what my activity is I'm not worrying about it much. But I do sometimes wonder how it looks from the outside.
But maybe people can't see as much of it as I assume they can. I'm not sure!

I think (I really, really hope!!!) that your viewing history can't be viewed by other people, but they can see when you like or comment on something and what you subscribe to, although those things can be made private too. Not sure about playlists cos I've never made one. I actually don't usually even sign in and, when I do, I don't like or comment on videos. If I'm wrong and my viewing history is visible to other people ... uhh, shoot me now??!! It's not, no worries. You're right, though: comments, likes, and subscriptions are visible to others, as are playlists that you haven't made private. Viewing history and private playlists can only be accessed by you.
