I've known suppliers in users' groups who used screen names to hide their identities, pretend to be their own customers and then wax eloquent about how wonderful they were--in one case, signing up under enough screen names to make a fan club--and since I grouse about such behavior, I need to keep my own nose clean. Thus in any forum where I have (or might have) a financial interest, I log in with what Vernor Vinge calls my True Name, and 'fess up my business involvement via a link in my sig. But back in the CB days...
