If i am interested in a guy.. dam right I will do a google search of his profile name and frequently find other sites he is on... sometimes it can be very revealing to see what he says elsewhere..

i also ran across a site that you can pay a couple of bucks and using someones email addy, they will tell you what other social networking sites that person is on.. i have not done that so far but i think that could be revealing also..

revealing as in, do-i-wanna-possibly-date-this-guy or is-he-just-another-schmuck-to-be-avoided...

Good post VC.

To add to that - don't say anything on FaceBook that you wouldn't want your current employer, a potential employer, or law enforcement to see.

Too bad he lost his job over this - they had a decent unicorn hunting profile. But what an idiot to be his job position and not anonymize his pictures!

Yeah, and...? So what?

What is it with people that they have to be so focussed on what other people who they don't know are doing?

The people I know in life know me, they know where to find me, and I doubt would ever think to google me.

If they do, so what?

The rest? What does it matter? I mean, it's not like any of us are that important.

And in the odd exception that you are, shouldn't you have thought about this before setting up an account?

What Stella said.

I was giving some thought to this train of thought this morning actually. We have a relatively new poster that per their profile, lives near me, and took offense (imagine..) to a few of my replies to her on a thread she created and to her snarky immature emails on the other side. She did the uber mature thing of implying she had some sort of top secret information about me, 'fall into her lap'. Insinuating that she was somehow going to use it against me. I actually laughed. I mean seriously.

I am a grown adult with a reasonably well functioning brain. I created this account with full awareness I was opening myself up just a wee bit more, to anonmous internet persons. I posted photos with that same awareness. I post tidbits of my life with the awareness of that also. I've also allowed a few individuals from here, into my more personal life via facebook etc.....with the awareness that I do not have any control over who they know or what they tell the people they know. That my own judgement of individuals does not always parallel that of others. I have no control over what other people may share with those they believe to be trustworthy.......or when they develope their own agendas.

I accept the possible risks that make other hesitate. I am okay with my neighbours knowing I visit this site. I am okay with my boss knowing (I did have a potential s-type visit me at work one day, with flowers in hand...)my potential clients (they will certainly know via my website if I ever get a willing victim...errrmm subject...for a few photo ideas I have), my family. Some already do, others do not. Hell, the local law enforcement knows because I was the one that told them! (There was a local ass wipe terrorizing some local women on CM.) There is no one person that will devastate my life by them knowing this aspect of my life.........if they do not already know. Certainly I do not run around shouting my relationships idiocyncrasies from the roof tops. I don't happen to believe that I, or my life, is that interesting. I also believe that most people do not WANT to know and will happily continue pretending they don't........especially if it is something they do not understand or are intimidated by.

But all of that said......you really are a fool if you think you can type away on here, displaying photos, that any reasonably intelligent (or not...) person with a wee bit of computer savy and interest in playing childish games with you..... can't figure out who you are. Figure out what you are willing to lose/expose BEFORE jumping in.

FR~

Tons you can find out from someone from a Google search and I am in the group with "So what?" While I'm not shouting it from the rooftops, I don't mind if anyone specifically knows who I am and what I'm into. Might it be embarrassing if someone on this side of my world made the connection with this site or another? Eh. Maybe. But in my mind, jeez, it's just a little crazy sex. Either someone will not care, will be disgusted, or will be jealous. As long as I'm not doing anything illegal or against my company rules, then I really don't care what people know about me. Many people that matter in my life already know this about me, anyway. No shockers, there.

That being said, I do have different emails and different usernames for here and that other site, and even another set of user names and emails for another site or two. I'm pretty aware of privacy and the internet and I do research how Google-able I am now and then, so I'm pretty aware of how much is out there about me in that way. But...if someone knows me well, they might recognize me from my CM profile pictures even without the face. But again - if they know me that well, they know this about me already.

ETA - company rules is what keeps me from, say, posting a face pic. But being here, unidentifiable, is not an issue.

I've googled your tit size repeatedly but still don't know it. Maybe you want to give me some search pointers.......

It isn't just Collarme that lists your recent activities.
I've found a few blog comments elsewhere attributed to you.

I'm not certain what the concern is, unless you have typed a few
things you wished you had a big giant eraser for.

"Would it not stand to reason that anonymity would be a good idea in here?"

If it's on the internet, it gets spidered and listed in the search engines.
This is a public site and there are hundreds of thousands CoallarMe posts & profiles listed in the search engines.
There are over 1.5 million references and link backs to the "collarme.com" root URL on the net.
... and, 1 out of every 5,000 internet users in North America visit collarme.com every day.

No anonymity here. It's a free site and web traffic makes the advertizing more valuable which pays the bills for the free services they give you.

I googled my name, a name that people I know could probably guess I was using, and my picture and CM profile and text popped up on google. So I came in here and unchecked the "keep me logged in" button and it still worked. Why is that? Would it not stand to reason that anonymity would be a good idea in here? From outside the site I googled others in here too. I did a couple searches and found no information. Would like to know if any of you know of a way to prevent what is in here from being googled from the outside. Hopefully this is just some deal I never heard of and only I am seeing this stuff. Thanks

I Googled you as well, and frankly....your Mother should be ashamed.
