Actual Complaints

Go tell the same to the Google staff. A simple search for "Unmentionable futurama facebook" reveals your "secret" Facebook page in no time.

true but i wasn't excepting someone to just post the link without asking

[Reply #762 on:]

There's no link there. Just the information needed to google it up.

Hm. I see we're on the last page of the "last ever complaints thread". I wish to complain that we still don't have the facepalm smiley canonised.

I grabbed the link to the first result from google. You voiced no objection for several hours, despite ample opportunity to do so. If you don't want people to be able to track you from site to site, then either make a better effort to hide yourself or make a better effort to get on with people.

It's not rocket science.

It's really not. Rocket science involves rockets, for a start.

Just a quick note: it's now a lot simpler for somebody to see that you have Facebook, and to find your Facebook profile, than if you'd simply asked me to take the link away. Which I would. Regardless of my level of douchery, I do have a code of ethics with regard to things like that.

Anyhow, there are other ways to google up your facebook page. "Shunsuke Unmentionable" as the search string will return your page as the top result. Hardly surprising, since on other forums you've used the name "Shunsuke" before having it banned and returning as "Unmentionable". There's also things like this post, which makes finding your facebook page nice and easy, too. It's not like it's hard to track people down online if you have a couple of brain cells.

If anybody wants to find you Unmentionable, they will. The internet is a powerful tool, and every time you use it you make it more powerful, and make it easier for anybody with a little free time to find out anything at all about you.

I don't think that anything which is freely googlable can be treated as "personal information" at all, Unmentionable.

d'oh! at least there isn't a direct link anymore & people can't assume they're looking at my page

I've got one if you want it.
