I am not afraid of this site, just talking about quilting, or showing pictures of what we have completed, like the others say our houses show up on the google maps.
My DH just put our address into the search bar and it comes up with a list of things one of which is our tax bill for the year. If anyone wants my tax bill they are welcome to it. The google map does not list the correct street address either. Were in a rural area and our street splits. One part is city and the other county |
no but this is why we done use our real names too. have you noticed all the nicknames here?
|
Nope---- can't imagine anyone tracking a quilting site....
|
No and I am a paranoid person. It seems inevitable, if somebody wants to find you they will. My x brother in law found me on facebook, and it's been 40 years.
|
I do think about it....I worry about everyone posting pics of their kids on here or anywhere on the internet....its a crazy world!
|
I agree...it is a crazy world. I just try to be thoughtful about what I post, and use private email for what I can instead of the public forums. I think, like so many of you here, that all our talk about quilts isn't something that most criminals would be interested in.
I just try to use my head and try not to worry too much about what I can't control.... |
No. If they ever found me, they'd turn me loose.
|
Yes, I worry about this. It's one of the reasons I gave up my facebook account.

I figure that I'm in the phone book, my name is in the registry of deeds, and there are pictures of my house from real estate ads and a newspaper article ('fools buy rundown antique'), but I don't have anything to hide so I don't worry. Of course, one look at my house and a thief would drive right on by to one where it looks like the owners can afford something worth stealing! LOL |
