Sorry, don't buy it. I have almost a unique name. Only people I know of named Harter are me, and my Uncle of the same name. Additionally she does not even address the fact that all of these are bigger problems in real life rather than over the internet.

Do you know how many people get phone books? More than there are people on the internet, I guarantee it. I bet you not if a tenth of the people have an unlisted number. This creates every single one of the problems listed save cyber harassment based on gender. Literally nothing else she lists is even close to unique to the internet, nor is it even a bigger problem because of it. Getting stalked, harassed, spammed, etc are bigger threats coming from people who have real life contact with you.

Try again.

Umm, do you know that the whole stalking harassing etc. problems are quite a bit more difficult in real life than on the internet? Thought it was common sense, I guess it isn't. Where as in real life you actually have to bother going through the trouble of getting the books, looking up registries etc. on the internet it really only takes a few clicks.

Try again though.
