Do people who use OISNT commonly stalk people (classmates/coworkers) for no reason?

Hello! I have a huge concern when entering the OISNT space. Out of my control I have a huge social media presence and you can find out everything about my life. I did not want this to happen and it’ll stay permanently on the internet. I’m also an officer for a cybersecurity club. Members in the club started doing OSINT and finding information about my life without me knowing. It made me extremely uncomfortable.

This is only in a college setting my issue is in the future when I enter the workplace. I will be involved in Cyber/OSINT so it’s likely my coworkers will be too. I’m really worried that they will try to research me since everyone in the cyber space had has a nack for it😣. I’m a very private person so I really do not want my future coworkers too do that. Is it common for you to OISNT your coworkers?

I’m considering changing my name because I’m huge on digital privacy. Do you think me swapping my middle name too my first name vise versa is enough to hide my connection to the previous name? Or should I drop the name everyone knows me as?
