Anyway, just to add to this, posting information about my friends and family is a sure-fire way to get total strangers aware of that information. That's scary right there. Further, if I reveal the wrong thing, I'm "known", and with that, I'm vulnurable. Remember, Name, Age, Zip, now I know everything else about you.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
