People should learn how to have a "public face" and a private life. Have separations between them. I run 3 LN nodes. One is public, with name and all shit linked to telegram alias. But that telegram it doesn't represent any real man in real life. Is just an alias. Another node is totally unknown, no name, no linked to anyone. Another node, mobile, that is a bridge in between those 2.
Is ok to have a public node as far you know how to keep away from your real identity.
Yeah, but the UX of compartmentalization like that is tricky and you have to learn a lot of things. So this is nuanced and I'm on one side happy that community handles issue/attack like this quite well, but on the other side I'd be happier to see protocol level functionality like @thrown suggests.

I know that minimint is adding functionality for managing Lightning stuff. Considering that it is meant to be an e-cash mint that provides default anonymity for its users, fingers crossed that it handles lightning in a similar way.
