WARNING

I thought you may find this some useful need to know information.

Before you post another word on here go to google and do a search on your screenname. You will be amazed to see all of your eons postings come up on google.
If your spouse or others knows your screenname or has looked over your shoulder and seen it you are putting info online that all they have to do is go to google and type in your screename and it comes up. They see and read everything you say about being married and lonely. Every joke you have made and everything you have done on eons.
I have blogged this and contacted eons asking them what on earth are they thinking.
What if someone has an abusive spouse what about the people who have posting comments about thier other family members online
Just wanted to pass this warning on and let you know in case you were not aware that not only is big brother watching but the world as well can see what you put on eons.

OMG, I just went to Google & you are right. That is awful. Not just from a standpoint of families maybe reading things you didn't mean to share but even from a standpoint of identity fraud. We have a lot of info about ourselves posted. Just look at Lifemap and you can be literally trailed through some of your life. I will be more careful & also more vague about postings.

WOW you're right. I've been "pouring my heart out" only to find everything can be read by anyone who knows my screen name, and most people do. Is there anyway I can change my screen name on Eons to protect my privacy in the future?

Yep, I tried it and my profile came up. Tried a few MySpace names I know, and nothing. Eons...you need to do some work.

I P/M Eons Body Editor, Beth. Maybe she can help with this or turn it over to someone who can. She's been very helpful in another group I'm in.
