Google Phone Book (PRIVACY Issue)

For those that don't know about this -- sorry if you already do -- if you type in a phone number with a home address at google.com, you will be given the person's address. If you have any children, I HIGHLY suggest you remove your phone number from the phone book.

Again, if you're aware, I don't give a shit.

In the phone book has nothing to do with it if people want to find you.

You can't blame women for what they do wrong in the same way that you can't blame a dog for what it does wrong.

I like it. That thing works pretty well, and it has my friend's brand new cell phone number in it. At the very least it has the town correct because I didn't pay for the rest.

I like being able to receive a call and google the number personally. Awhile back some wankers that I bought furniture from were calling me 3 times a day (didn't know it was them at the time) and would never leave a message. I googled their number and found out others were having the same problem and that it was this furniture company, so I called their corporate number and bitched at them to never call me again, and well I haven't received any more new calls.

They have to KNOW your number to see who it is by this method, so what's the big deal?

Yeah.. umm. This is just online caller ID that can't be blocked. It's a good thing.

I have yet to get any information from any phone number on that website.

Freaking out over nothing it sounds.

Kids mistakenly give their phone numbers to people on the internet.

Teach your kids not to be idiots. Don't talk to strangers, look both ways to cross the street and that man on the machine is a fucking psycho and he will cut you.

Those kids deserve to be beaten and raped then.

If your kid is that stupid, don't let them on the goddamn net. Problem solved.

Most of those sites are pseudo-scams. They tell you the city,state based on area code then nothing else is guaranteed.

CLEARLY IT IS THE FAULT OF THE INTERNET INFORMATION GODS

not the parents who don't tell their kids about not giving out personal info, not at all.
