Invasion of Privacy

World of Warcraft fans rail against Blizzard real names plan

I NEVER troll (Troll! /giggle!) the Warcraft Forums, so that part doesn’t really bother me. I do worry for everyone else though. Blizzard did us right when they gave everyone their anonymity back.

I don’t like the fact that I can see the whole names or my friend’s friends and they can see mine. What if I am not in amicable terms with some of their friends? Some of them know me by my first name, which was ok (cause everyone has a name and mine is pretty common) but for them to be able to narrow down my last name from a list, pretty scary!!! And it’s not fair to exclude a friend because of this. I hope they skip that Friend of Friend thing… or at least give everyone an option to turn off other people’s view.
