I don't know, maybe I'm too cynical, but I don't think posting personal information online is a good idea.

If your street address isn’t on the internet you are doing way better than I.

Some recruiter a 5 or 7 years ago or so went so far as to scan my paper resume, (with my address), did OCR, and posted it on the net.

My wife’s in a profession that needs registration with the state - they post the office address in the net - so no home offices.

Got a land line, and in the white pages - like everyone in my parent’s generation? Your address is on whitepages.com (and plenty of other places.)

The number of ways this info leaks to the net is astounding.

Why would your resume have your actual street address?

Surely city name is enough granularity. (mine doesn't even have that)

It's also why mine doesn't have my actual DOB.

I couldn't agree more. This has something like 4chan spam written all over it. They have done much worse, from much less. It's messed up, but it's a sad truth.

I don't see why you had to name 4chan into this.

They have done nice things as well, like http://tech.slashdot.org/story/10/09/05/2148248/4chan-Gives-...

Because 4chan is the worst place on the internet!!!!!!!!!

I was about to produce a counter argument before I saw who the author of that comment was.

I didn't believe you until the 5th exclamation mark.

I love /b/ but it does kill my productivity like no other.

Agreed. Had a brief "aww" wash over me that quickly turned into "but what if... oh no..."
