> Wayne May (not his real name)

Don't want to use his real name, probably for his safety considering it mentions death threats, but half a page later there's a super clear picture of him?!?

Unless he's a celebrity it's much harder to find someone from a picture than it is from a name

That probably won’t be true within the span of time he’ll be active. Surely Facebook or Google will offer some mechanism for face recognition.

You can probably just use Google's reverse image search and then look at the "related images" pane on the right.

I thought the article title was pretty silly; as a gregarious human, risking death threats is something I do on a daily basis just shopping for milk.

Anyway, I tried what you suggested. It was well worth it: https://imgur.com/a/dCFnx

In a dystopian future where assassination has been automated and can easily be ordered from the dark web, a contract on Wayne May brings the end for humanity ...

Sure, but if I was worried about receiving death threats, I wouldn't want either to be publicised!
