"some leet profiling" if you look at what netflix (supposedly anonymised) + imdb was able to do, or the classic of AOL releasing their searches (again anonymised) then a join of google with facebook is quite a scary prospect. Especially as d of b + partial zip/postcode allows for re-identification most of the time (i believe that d of b + state = 85% re-identification). It wouldn't just be a selective subset but pretty much who, where, when and probably why without too many non-Amish exceptions. mike _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
