Well, then I believe the prudent measure would be to contact the appropriate authorities. Though it certainly is a valid reason to limit one's exposure. :)
My main issue is I know that if someone was petty enough - a disgruntled co-worker or something (not that I go around getting people all disgruntled out of habit, mind) - they could probably find my online identity and get something I've said and use it against me. I like to be able to speak freely online without too much fear of it bleeding into IRL. It's one of the great benefits of not being a hugely successful and/or famous person, so I like to get the most out of it!
Prudent thinking which I agree with. :) I, too, try to maintain some distance between RL & online interactions, though I haven't been overly cautious with such things and I'm sure someone with enough time on their hands could manage to find something. And agreed on the whole famous part, I'm quite sure that is something I couldn't manage!
But why would you want to be rude? :( It's so much nicer when people are nice to each other! :)
Ok, what if someone fell in love with me and wanted to stalk me? Again!

Or maybe I am famous and that's to throw people off the scent. And maybe this is a double bluff. NONE OF YOU CAN PROVE ANYTHING
