I think you've missed something essential: The
stalkers/spammers/trolls/(whatever) make _themselves_ irrelevant and
not to be taken seriously. Why should you allow yourself to be drained
of anything worthwhile by such?
If your research is well founded, carefully executed, and well-enough
documented that others can duplicate and confirm your findings, what
can one (or a million) naysayers possibly subtract?

Even if I were prepared to agree that this was true (which I'm not),
there is at least one safe path: distribute the knowledge so widely
that nothing done to you or those with whom you work could effect
supression of that knowledge. If the knowledge clearly can't be
supressed, then it becomes counter-productive to "snuff" the origin.
IMO, this may be one of the _most_ important contributions of the
Internet and nntp.
Damn the torpedos - full speed ahead!
