Surfing the net and privacy:

You are absolutely right Mr. Pontaoe. Even Valerie Plame and those deep cover spies are not assured of privacy, so let us not make a joke of ourselves about preserving our privacy.

For a few dollars, one can search most of the personal information about a person. Most public information is free-just google it.

For example, one prolific poster is the son of an attorney who pass the bar in 1952 and graduated from Mapua Institute of Technology as a mechanical engineer and a member of a Filipino Technical Professional Association and Binalonan Association abroad, lost money in an investment fund, among many other detailed information available free and can be verified easily.

Remember how Ruffa Gutierrez Bektas marriage in USA was discovered? As “M” said: We do function in your absence 007 and “Tanaka” said: We have our sources Bond-san just like you.

Google Earth can show where you live, what car you drive, your house, among other things. If you are using webcam, someone might be lucky to see you in your underwear if you are not careful.

Does anyone still want that false sense of privacy? You must be joking.
