 >> Then why have it at all?

In Giovanni's case, I suspect it is so that he can demonstrate to his
management that his efforts have a world-wide audience.  Given today's IBM
with it's "There's a charge for everything" approach he needs all the help
he can get to justify the site's existence.

 >> Names are worth more than software in today's world.

Maybe - but I'm not sure that answers my question.  Again - so what? - If
I'm worried about that I use (as I sometimes do) a free e-mail account that
has no connection with the "real" me.  I would guess that my real e-mail is
registered with about 50 web sites.  I have yet to see any unwanted e-mail
or anything else as a result - so what am I missing here?  Maybe I'm just
too old to bother with being paranoid without some evidence that the
paranoia is justified.
