Are you anonymous when leaving a comment on Google?

Hello,

I would like to leave a comment about a company I worked for, stating what is wrong, particularly regarding recruitment which is more than dehumanized like in many companies.

The problem is, a family member wants to work for this company. Will the company in question know my first and last name behind my nickname if I leave a review? Because I don't want to jeopardize my nephew. I heard that you are no longer anonymous when leaving a review on Google, yet I feel like people around me are not aware of this.

Thank you,

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 88.0.4324.190

Hello

If you don't leave your name / first name you will be relatively anonymous.
I say relatively because you will need a Google account to leave a comment. Furthermore, there will be an IP address associated with the comment so it would be possible to track you down through a legal request.
And finally, your comment might give clues about who you are.

In short, it's rather discouraged.
