A few months ago, pepole who play World of Warcraft went through a similar run-in with Facebook. They were planning to force everyone who used the official forums to have ther real full name signed to the posts, and since there's already a feed for each character detailing what they were doing at any given time, it would have been blatantly unsafe. The forums there tend to be volatile, but the community reaction against this and WoW's integration with Facebook was bigger than any response there, ever. So big that 'RealID' was indeed aborted, but the privacy dodginess goes on.To see it happen there, then to see it here is massively unsettling. Anonymity on the internet no longer seems to be in fashion; it's not in Facebook's (and others) commercial interest to allow it to be.Great post, thank you. :)
