Network stupidity Part III

[matrixmann]

A common question seems to be "How did you find me?"

Well, I could have found you through one of your associates, through one of your own posts, through a comment I've read, I could have found you through a search engine or through possibilities that your associated network provides to find out what others do (latest entries, ratings, promotion).

If you're wondering, just think about what you do.
If you write openly, prepare for guests. It's a public network, everyone can find you.
If you don't want that, just hide and protect yourself.

Public means public.
All who find can read you. Be it somebody who likes you or be it somebody who hates you.

It's what this business involves.

Or you could be like me. With bad people trying to find out things about you . Suspicious of everyone new because you've been tricked before.

You also keep your shop shut, that's why there's nothing bad with it.
Some people don't and become wondering how someone can suddenly show up which they didn't invite. Or perhaps know personal things about them (although never talked to).

The nature of my past means I am suspicious of everything. Lol.

Yes. It's funny when people post things publicly on the internet and then freak out about it later.
