What information do I need to keep secret?

I’m going to make a Youtube video showing how I’m using particle and there are a lot of secret-y looking things, but which pieces of information do I actually need to protect? Like does it matter if someone can see that my Argon is named argon_bumble_lightning or are any of the random hashes that pop up on the screen secrets?

The device name is not really sensitive. I would redact Device ID, ICCID (Boron/etc. only), Device Secret (which I believe is only shown when you do “i” using the Listening mode serial commands) and especially your personal auth token (which may not show up unless you’re doing things like accessing the REST API on-screen). Maybe redact the serial number too, although I’m not sure what could be done with it.
