Hey what can I say, you make some good points! However with regard to the quote, this is what I was trying to point out in the other thread.
Sure certain info can be pulled up, but it's all public anyway, regardless of anything you may do or say.
All that information is freely available to anyone who wants to find it, regardless of any disclosures. Some script kiddy on here tried to show how scary he was by bringing up the same info on me when I challenged him, all the while forgetting that that information is exactly what I said he'd be able to find.
When challenged to do something, ANYTHING, that actually had some form of effect or impact on my life, he failed. Most of what he posted is as easy as googling for (companies information, public registrars, etc...).
I've been heavy online for over 15 years and one thing you realise after a while, is that all these things that people get sensitive over, are really not worth getting upset over.
If anything, reacting to these things gives the perpetrator the feeling they won by scaring or annoying you.
Just realise it's a kid, or an adult with a kids intelligence, that's tryna troll... and move on.
Good post though I must say, Red! Sometimes I can post stuff without thinking it all through... and then someone like you sheds light
nb: I was a script kiddy idiot when I was younger until I realised how stupid it was to fake myself into thinking I was some kind of hacker, so I do have some understanding of what is and isn't possible, at least at an amateur level (which 95% of these people are, amateur script kiddies).
