Why not hide it? If you did something very stupid at 17, something of which there is public record for everyone to find with a background check, do you still have to go around telling it to everyone for the rest of your life?

You have paid for your stupidity and life goes on. In this case life has certainly moved on and it doesn't seem like he is secretly creating a 4th reich in his free time.

Of course if you can do something easy to hide it like spelling your name better great. It has been a long time, but some people don't seem to understand this and seem to want criminals to be punished forever.

Why bother about this?
