Well then they know the name I was registered as on IMDb which has never been an issue since it was already 'changed' when I got it.

I'm referring to those people who may have put their real name in the email address they used to register this site. By default IMDB did not display it. This site does. If you dont mind people knowing your real name this doesnt apply to you. Im writing this to help those that prefer to remain anonymous to protect themselves for a variety of obvious reasons. Identity theft, trolling etc, but who may be completely unaware their profile page is showing said info.

I do wonder why forums ask for people's DOB, I know in some cases they want people over a certain age but how would they even prove you aren't the age you say you are.

Its pointless, but many forum generator websites like freeforums do it. I never put my real dob anyway, but some people do.

I have a question: Does the whole internet -- comprised of people and websites from all over the world -- follow American policies, statutes, acts, laws, et alii ?? Just curious because COPRA is very USA |

Out of habit I always check privacy setting right way when I join a site. I learned my lesson lesson after posting on a forum for discussion about..*ahem*...gentleman's films, and I didn't realize that email addresses were visible by default. Serves me right for talking about Midget Mud Wrestling Babes #12 on a public message board.

imdb really screwed us, I thought that most days the questions and answers there came very slow, BUT this is like watching slugs/snails race.

No reason for a site like this to know my birthday. |
