I'm totally confused by all the objections. I have websites and they contain my email address, telephone number and address. Of course they do because I want people to interact with me about my websites. I have received masses of insulting email comments about my web sites but never received an insulting phone call about them - complaints yes,

And it's law that newsletters contain a real address.

Anonymity, if you have a website, is the dream of a fool. So why not give Google your name for a product they own, why keep it secret? If I own a shop on the high street my name appears in all the legal documents both published in the shop (by law) and all over the place. Why is the internet different?

Anonymity on the web allows and encourages lack of accountability.
