I can see anonymity becoming something sought after. I bet there will be people out there offering services to clean up the internet one day. Just like how everyone today is a self proclaimed SEO expert. In twenty years googling your name and finding nothing about yourself will be invaluable.

Why do we need Social Networks if we can already "Google" it? Anonymity is only as private as we choose but once we willingly give away our information onto the internet it becomes public and we can't take it back. Which brings up another point.

I had one of those BBS systems back in the early 70's (started out with a 1200 baud modem). Time passes and things change. Back then we used to verify age by having the user mail in a copy of their driver's license. But that was long ago and now is now. As time passes the Internet or WWW, as we know it, will keep changing. I don't know what it is changing to or when it is going to happen but I do hope that along the way I lose nothing of myself. Personal information? Had to give my Email to write this, but hey, what have I got to hide...

I'm all for the sharing of ideas. It's the abuse of our personal (and private) information that concerns me. Only just recently I posted another news item that the Social Networks are being stalked by identity thieves. I don't consider it "paranoia" to be on guard for our rights and privileges as citizens. In fact I consider it irresponsible to be cavalier about those very freedoms that our forefathers died for. But today young people especially are naively giving away their private information. I'm just doing my best to sound the alarm. I think you misunderstood me Trey.

By actively participating in the online social community you seek to throw off the shrouds of paranoia induced privacy that for so long cloaked us. The online social community is a medium through which you can share ideas, thoughts, opinions. You can have open topical debates. You can meet people you would have never otherwise had the opportunity to encounter. Think about it for a second. The online social community rapid expansion can be attributed directly to the events that transpired on September 11, 2001. Sound crazy? Here me out. Since that day, at least in America, we have been subjected to a non-stop psychological warfare operation. Slowly each person is being programmed to trust those around us less and less. Humans being a social creature by nature subconsciously look for ways to fulfill their needs of social interaction. The current online social community explosion is the birth child of that need. The previous in all in my humble opinion only of course.
