Strange outing of a customer

[Ducon]

Months ago I saw something strange on Twitter.
( I don't know whether the account still exists )
An escort was publishing thank-you notes to a regular customer.
She did it by publishing a screenshot of a money transfer, and a message thanking and praising the dude without naming him.
On the screenshot, the amount was visible but the dude's name was manually scribbled out so that only a couple of letters could be guessed.
The problem is, she did that multiple times, and scribbled differently each time, exposing different letters.
So eventually it became very easy to assemble pieces of the puzzle and get the dude's full name. ( I checked, it was a real person )
I wonder what her intention was.

Without knowing anything about the circumstances and amounts etc. I could guess that the Twitter account was for work, the followers were her clients, and that she was posting a positive example of the types of amounts she'd like to receive from everyone, in the hopes of shaming them all into being more generous. Without knowing anything about it though it's hard to say for sure.

How can you be sure it was always the same name? You maybe put together different information.

But I must say, not everyone has the same definition and understanding of privacy.
