On the internet people can be whatever they want to be.

I've seen "ID Protect" from enom.com and ask myself, if I should use that.
But I'm not sure if this also changes the situation for legal cases.

Do you also have problems like that ... or other problems?
Can't you just get a mailbox at either the post office or one of these Mail Boxes etc. style places and place your whois listing under that address?

Then they can just stalk the business if they really want you that bad.

if you added idprotect on now, it wouldn't do any good, because dnsstuff.com and other sites record whois changes.

No, absolutely not.
But I really got the forum for the unhealthy.
And so there is at least one person stalking me (now).

I get emails from time to time from the IMDb groupies. they're usually the law & order junkies and they usually ask a random question like: "what's vBulletin" (because somehow IMDb found out that i do this on the side) just to see if i'll respond. if i do, then they'll start in on me with the hard questions: what's Ice-T like? is he a pimp? etc.

So, to compensate for this, i answer any emails originating from IMDb in the third person. I've ran across a few big-board-big-wigs who all seem to share a common practice: leave the PR to the low-end moderators, because you're right.. the more attention they get, the more they want.
