Let me tell you a story.Soooo...were you outed?
I was on a social list. One day I get the invite and I RSVP back from the wrong email.
A few months later I get a new email from them at this non-hobby email, sent by someone who I had not given it to. It seems the organizer got someone to help and gave him everyone's emails. That person didn't just email me, he emailed every email he had, not using BCC. So I and many others had identifying information sent out to a list of over 100 people. That was about 2 years ago.
This week I get an email from a site not to be named and guess what. They have been harvesting every email they could get their hands on and they were sending emails out 100 at a time, not bcc'd so, again, myself and others had identifying information sent out to at least 100 people by someone we didn't give our address to.
The point I am making is this. While I was dumb to not pay attention, the more you get involved in hobby related events involving large numbers of people the more likely you are to have issues.
For me this game is now one-on-one or nothing. Originally Posted by Fort Worth Punk
