Net anonymity is waning - privacy really is going/gone, and there's not really a way to get it back.

Go search your own name on a site like Spokeo.com. They have some incorrect info, but you may be surprised about how much of your life is already known and available to anyone. The younger you are, the less info they will have - but once you start integrating into society (loans, homes, credit cards), you are "out there".

now that is definitely creepy...
