    Has anyone seen this before?

    http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~fsiddiqi/mrdoubtfire/page1.htm?Cat=0&Number=5389199&page=0&fpart=1&vc=1

    It's a few pages long but it's worth it! He posts a message on this forum saying Hondas are crap, the other forum members aren't pleased, see what happens to him within 2 hours!!!

    Scary really...

    EDIT

    They've taken it all down.

    Basically they were able to find his name, school, address, mum and dad, pictures of him, pictures of his dad,info on his parents' cars etc... Just from one post on the site

    Funny.......

    Its a bit scary just how much information is on the internet about you in the USA.

    The Data Protection Act over here prevents doing something like that over here....

    Lots, but not automatically very personal information like your social security number.

    You can do reverse number search of phone numbers in the US which cannot occur in the EU.......
