If you use a handle on RIU that you use elswhere on the web try this....

Google your RIU nickname, go through the results and see how many steps it takes before you get to personally identifiable information.....

Why doesnt RIU close the posts section so that they cant be indexed or cached by google etc, seems to me like RIU doesnt really care about your privacy.....

Im glad now that i chose a random handle... but spare a thought for those people that use there usual handle's.... silly silly.

Why don't you Google my username? :) It's the unique usernames such as the one you have that reveal identities through Google. :) Mines not random. It's a very identifiable name. There are hundreds of thousands of Google results for it. ;)

LMFAO. Over 2.3 billion results. xD You got me beat by nearly 1000x. :D



Best part is i posted my pic and use my name on this site, I'm not into social networking like most i have this account and FB(for family ) so i'm not plastered all over the internet like most young women

If you're a black high school student then you're pretty much screwed.

in the BING search the first two suggestion is related to this site
