But really, is this some sort of in-joke I don't know about? Who is Demetrio Siciliano? Why am I posting as him?

I decided to register just so I could post on this issue. I am a female who plays WoW, and I have a battle.net account tied to my real name, but when SC2 is released, I'm going to make a new, fake battle.net address with a fake (male or at least ambiguous) name. I have a spare authenticator thingie around here somewhere so hopefully I won't ever have to try to prove to Blizz that I am the fake name.

I have a pretty common name, but even so I don't even want future employers to know that I game. People will hold that against you. Also I work for a state government agency, and if I want a better position there are some very invasive background checks involved. Of course they will google people.

Lots of great arguments by people in this thread, and in Husky's video.

I think it boils down to the Korean law issue, personally. Don't know if it was in this forum that I saw it, but it's here, from a blog at harvard.edu so personally I feel that gives it more weight than just coming from some random doofus. Take that for what you will.

Blizz is just trying to give some other reason that makes no sense. I have to say that this issue has sort of galvanized me, and I deleted all pictures of me from my flickr / made them private, and am considering deleting my facebook account (not much on there anyway). I was thinking about what nickname I'd like to use with SC2, and filled a whole notecard front & back with possibilities, but couldn't decide on one. I think I will use all of them for various sites around the internet. I have been too lax with my usernames and passwords online and this has sort of brought it into focus that I need to be more careful.

I get this creeping dread about this issue. There is this convergence of identities from the people who want to monetize every damn scrap of information on people they can get their hands on, and it has to be fought.
