Privacy Concerns

I went to look at your profile, but it's no longer viewable on OH for privacy reasons.

As to your concerns regarding Google, chances are fairly good that people will have a more difficult time accessing info on you as time passes.  I used my actual name when I first joined OA in 07/2007.  I didn't care if other people read about me, but my brother did object to any mention of him ( not by name, but simply as my brother).  I'd post that I'm bi-polar and he suffers from depression.  As a professor at a major university, he didn't want that to be common knowledge.  I was able to change my profile years ago and even if I Google my own name, I can't find records about me now.  That's because there are hundreds of more entries with my name on Google now.

I never tried to Google an e-mail address.  I don't think I'll try it in the future.

Going back and replying to this thread was the only way I could get back to you.  So, hopefully, your problem is being solved.

> I went to look at your profile, but it's no longer viewable on OH for privacy reasons. Well yes, as I mentioned, I changed my privacy settings so that only "friends" on OH could see my profile.  After some time, the page will be removed from the Google index.
