Dear FRiends,
A FReeper sent me a short list of names this morning that he says he found on an internet site that matched up freeper names to their real names. He says he managed to get the site owner to delete it and we can thank him for that. But in the message he sent me there was also an accusation that the list was provided to a third party by John Robinson. That's bullshit. John would never do such a thing.
On a hunch, I looked up the listed names on FR's facebook page and sure enough all but two were members. Then he sent me a longer list and I recognized many of those names as also being facebook members. I've seen threads run on facebook where members outed their own FR screen names. If you have a facebook or twitter account or other social media accounts in your real names, you may want to be cautious about outing your FR screen name. There are leftists out there and sometimes even anti-freepers who could easily compile and post such lists.
yes, but no one knows who dalereed really is...
Would be interested to know if my name wound up on that list.
Yeah, I got a FReepmail about that.
Could be upsetting to some, but me I don’t worry much.
I KNOW some of it came off Facebook, as one name on the list is a designation she only uses there.. FR handle as middle name.

Not as long as the IRS has the ability to look up your name and address (and soon all your medical records). BTW, Obama’s NRA has a database of all your information according to a certain congresswoman who also believes one of our space flights did a 360 and landed on Mars.
(Come and get me! I have COFFEE!)
Fixed it.
I’ve always been amazed at how much smarter leftists portray themselves to be as as opposed to righties only to find them leaving so many bread crumbs online that give away their real identities at a much higher percentage rate than righties.
Based on how slow my Internet connection has become, I am sure the IRS, FBI, NSA, and DNC are ALL watching me, and have been posting over-board commentary, just to see when they will “visit” me.....
I just cancelled my facebook account because of that “person” who is siding for amnesty, but I don’t know how long it will take to actually have it CANCELLED!
I’m hoping it doesn’t take two years...
Facebook is a gov’t acknowledged security risk.
Not for the obvious ID theft issue, but for complete and invisible takeover of your computer.
Thanks. That’s reassuring. Now I can go back to the NSA locking my email while they mine for data. Anybody know how long that usually takes? They’ve been at it all morning, and now into the afternoon.
If you did not receive the freepmail message, you we’re not on the list.
Good idea.
Mmmm do I go by Neo or Mr. Anderson?
Resistance to Facebook is obedience to God
And accessories.
I had a liberal on twitter tell me that my mocking of Obama wouldn’t be so funny when I was sitting in a federal prison. LOL
Thou shalt not mock!
