    That's why I used my rarely used gmail account.

    not worried about that in the least bit.
    now a days, if someone wants to find your info, they will (if they have the means)

    you would be amazed what kids on 4chan find out about people with very little info other than name and general location.

    Luckily, no info found on me.

    Yeah, enough of my information is wrong that I will just leave it be.

    Confusion to the enemy! The enemy, in this case, being data miners and ID thievers. (I know, not a word)

    That's the truth. There IS NO PRIVACY in this high tech age. Anyone with the slightest effort can find you and everything they need to know about you. Just get used to it and realize this. There are sources out there that have so much info it's scarey.

    I used to worry, but if someone is looking for me, they will find me. Thousands of cars drive by my house every day, people can see into my garage if the door is open, they can see my TV if the front door is open, and to be quite frank, if they want it they can get it at some point. And if I would go through all of the process of making myself more anonymous, I might fall victim to a completely random act anyway. That being said, I am still mindful of what hits the internet, email, cell phone, snail mail, and what not, but I wont worry one bit that someone has my home phone number with a google search or know the license plate of my car from a street view.

    Most of the info on me was incorrect & appeared that they filled in what ever they didn't know with . . . random "facts" They came almost close enough on the adress to actually get mail to me, but. . . not close enough for someone actually looking to get something delivered to me. Same deal for the wife, listed twice and neither right enough in the facts to worry about. My ex-wife doesn't seem to exists, but she posts enough of her life online elsewhere. . . .
