I notice that on Tracklogs to which I have contributed, it shows my Username alongside my nearest Airport. Is there a way to prevent my Username appearing in this log?

Fear not, only you will see your username listed in tracklogs you’ve contributed to. Other users will only see “FlightAware ADS-B (airport code),” nothing more specific than that. You can verify this by viewing a tracklog in an incognito browser window to simulate what the average anonymous FA user sees.
