Somebody may choose to be in Facebook under an alias. Metadata will still reveal his identity.

Your connections define you. Who but you, for example, would have connections to your old college and also to your current employer? Or to people in your neighborhood and your current employer? And if somebody wants to harass you, your connections provide a chart of who to hit in order to cause you harm or distress.

Been a FReeper for many years and a long time lurker before that.

I consider myself "defined" by the best of company.
