WordPress, why you did that?
-
1.These days I saw I guy trying to stole passwords in his blog. A simple plan, just very innocent users would fall. So I told it to WordPress using the “Report as Spam” button.
2. WP send me a mail, telling that the he was banished from WP.
3. The guy start to boring me by mail telling that the post was just a joke and he captured just 2 persons passwords. How he got my mail? WP told him. Now I have a someone boring me.WP don’t protected me and my privacy. I don’t want to colaborate with WP anymore with reports of spam or any other kind of ilegal content. You should not give to banished people the email from the denouncer. The denounces should be anonymous.
Please, take care of it. -
Who told you WP gave him your email? I’ve certainly reported my share of spammers, but have never had any email of this type. You do know that people can look you up on Technorati, etc, right?

“How he got my mail? WP told him. “
No I did not.You sent in a report. I replied to you.
That’s it.I did not give your details to anyone else.
Really I didn’t. -
You didn’t leave the person a comment, did you? That would have given him or her the email address.
Trust me on WP not giving out personal information. I can’t even get Mark to look to see if my ex Angie is around here somewhere and they love me. :)

My fault. -

You are just fooling around, arent u :P ( I am G.C )
I have been reporting crimes since LA was under survilence, nothing ! He must have tracked u down technocrati .. or google ..

If you were using gmail accounts, you could block/ignore the person emails. I did it some weeks ago with some boring persons.

I’m new and quite concerned about this topic. My intent is to address specific topics that are prone to deception an their basic theses. And I fully expect to draw a lot of flack, but my commentaries will be documented and referenced.
What bothers me is the lack of private accounts, wherein telephone numbers, private address, etc., are available to people as a simple WhoIs? or similar search.
How does WordPress address, or intend to address, this safety issue?

2 correx to the above:
1. first paragraph–“…prone to deception ‘as’ their basic theses.”
2. second paragraph–“wherein telephone numbers, private addresses, etc., are ‘not’ available…”
Reading Hugh Hewitt’s book “Blog” makes one very, very aware of the real dangers of such personal information casually falling into the hands of toxic people. So, what’s the future of privacy?
I’ve read some here about possible (or likely?) federal intrusion requiring all sites to be public, which is a series of mega-lawsuits waiting to happen, but that aside, wazzup?

I have reported about 10 blogs, and they never got may address. As I read, the problem was you leaved a comment and later the blog has suspedend.

It’s a privacy issue, not a safety issue.
In time management of domains will improve. -
Reporting blogs:
We never say who reported the blog, when it was reported, what was reported or give any other information. We simply focus on the reasons for any action.Reporting blogs is completely confidential – it should be nothing else.
