Phuc Dat Bich admits hoax in Facebook name battle
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-34918491
An Australian calling himself Phuc Dat Bich, who made
global headlines after saying he was fighting to use his real
name on Facebook, admits it was hoax. "Mr Bich" said on
Facebook his real name was "Joe Carr" (or perhaps joker).

Interestingly, this only serves to underscore the fact that Facebook's
real name policies are untenable.
