I modified my Profile Information & filled out most of the spaces. I've just looked at my profile page, & noticed my info is sitting in plain view for anyone to see. I'm concerned about whether or not is is a danger to my real life internet security. (Especially my exposed name & location.) Am I paranoid, or am I right that this is dangerous? All others that also filled out their Profile Information might wanna think about this as well.

I decided to empty those fields shortly after I made my account for the same reasons. You may either want to do that or increase the privacy of your profile.

To be fair, aside from the First/Last name thing, it really doesn't appear different from your average forum user profile. Though I still don't reckon anyone on BSN needs to know my real name >.<
