Personal Profile Opting Out
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to opt-out my profile from OpenDota. I have an issue when players find my OpenDota profile and data and start harassing me because of my stats.
Describe the solution you'd like
A simple opt-out option.
- Remove from public player list.
- Any profile references displays back to ANONYMOUS. Peers tab/chat history tab/etc.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Keep the match data if it breaks the platform but I would like my profile hidden and any reference back to anonymous.

This is something you need to do from the Dota client, if you go into Settings then Social, uncheck Expose Public Match Data and OpenDota can no longer see your data.

Hi, okay I did that. How come I can still see my profile on OpenDota?
This will not remove historical data but going forward it will not update with new data.

That's what I was afraid of. Why isn't opting out your own profile an option?

My understanding is that this information is exposed by Valve itself on the API; OpenDota isn't doing any storing, just reading data that is publicly made available by the Dota API
