No, I don&#039;t.As for the police etc, it&#039;s all still hearsay until they access my actual data and discover that I play Catch the Kitten too much. Big deal. Or maybe I accessed a porn site.

I dont use it for posting, just for reading important feeds (like OMG or major league soccer) But I&#039;m sure you are right and those programs can scrape other social networks as well.So lets say in the future you go in for a job interview, first thing employers might do is check your public online profile at XYZ website where anyone can post comments about you. It may not matter to your friends, but potential employers? What about local police? This is sort of like a human version of your credit report, but.... public. Eventually, companies, law enforcement, etc can profile you based on your online presence and then what? Predict if you will commit a crime? Predict what kind of crime you might commit? Lock you up before you do something? When will it end? Its easier to stop that sort of madness now, before it gets out of hand. I&#039;m choosing to keep my public identity offline as much as possible, as impossible at it is these days.http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2010/03/unvarnished-a-new-website-that-rates-people-triggers-controversy.html</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I do have a twitter account, but I keep it as private as possible.

I got rid of my Facebook acct about 6 months ago. Theres an iphone app that lets you take a photo of someone and then it scans Facebook and tells you who it is. No thanks. Theres also a website that links to Facebook so people can rate you on a 1 to 10 scale. Are you a hard worker? Are you friendly? Are you courteous? Do you use cuss words? Do you waste too much time at work? Do you do charity work, etc, etc. I dont want people rating me and having that info public. I also dont want to be searched or scanned.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>D0od is SMART. I got rid of my Facebook acct about 6 months ago.
