Information on Internet

Hello all:

I have read your thread about personal information being placed on the Internet. While I find this an awful breach of confidentiality, I believe there is nothing we can do to eliminate this threat. You could change to a ficticious name, as was advised. I find it hard to believe that people will have so much time on their hands that they will reserach your information to get your correct name but I have long ago ceased being surprised at what people will do. It is not quite as effective but you can contact an individual privately by clicking on a person’s name. If you wish to take information off your posting, you can edit your submission.

I am sorry about this but I want you to know that the Foundation tries as hard as it can to prevent this type of thing. Sometimes, there is just nothing anyone can do to stop it.
