Uhhhh, don't look now, but that's sop almost everywhere. Even
your post is available online already, should anyone want to look
for your name, title, etc.. All you can do is use safe hex and
common sense. Maybe you think credit card companies, Sears, DMV,
etc etc etc don't do similar things? AND have more of your
personal info they spread out to third parties? I wouldn't waste
my time.
