There go your undoubtedly brilliant plans!
 
You'd have to pay an admin.

First name: Nothing.

First + Last: Nothing

First + Last + City + State: My highschool, and a single 'people finding' site.

I beat that: abso-fucking-lutely nothing. :dance:

Might be because I make it a rule to never use my real name on the interwebz. I think only three people on them even know just my first name.

Yeah, that doesn't help when your high school has a web page.

And those people finding sites use public government records, and then build a database they put online. So if you have a phone number, own a home, file taxes, or have a license, you should show up on them.

They don't.

I don't (don't like phones), I don't, I don't, and I don't (terrified of driving).

I'll probably show up in the future, of course, but I'm good for now.

There's a lot of people with my name, hell my stupid facebook thingy my wife created for me doesn't even show up when I search my full name, province, city, college.

I feel so invisible :(

I found out that:
I am a former Secretary of State of Mississippi
Have my own web site dedicated to my travel photos
Can apparently play Jazz violin.
And 2 people live within 40 miles of my home that have the same exact name (First/last).

I am a ninja.

Interesting.

My real name (first, last, and middle) fail to produce anything on Google (plenty of hits, but none who are me, that is). Neither do adding my hometown, workplace, or birth date bring me up.

Only my screen name gets results.

Conclusion: RickZarber is a more interesting persona than my real name.

It's not that they are, but that anyone, anywhere can on a whim. It only takes one person to ruin your whole life, given the right situation.

A concept known as Sousurveillance, and something that can yield disturbingly accurate information with the simplest of tools.

Well, Seil, you have officially scared me. And I sat through some of teh worst the internet has to offer without flinching.
Luckily, I have a name held by enough famous people to be hidden in the recesses of the internet...Unless I do something with my life that makes me noticable.
