Actually, no. Individual identities can be easily determined over the internet, without a subpoena.

I'm curious - how would you do this?

Being identified is just a fact of life for ham radio ops. We have to give callsigns for anything, callsigns can be looked-up to produce a name and address, and simple web searches with that will get a phone number. It'd be like having to post a tail number everywhere you went. So far nobody has been motivated enough to call me or cause me problems. Never underestimate the power of lazy!

I never realized there were so many weirdos around!!!

I just come here for a few kaughs and to read some rumors, I don't care if people know whoI am and I don'y know or care who anybody is,except for a few people I have had the pleasure to meet.

Im not a computer expert or anything, but can a Member on here be tracked down by their computers' IP address? I've heard of investigaters being able to locate where a users compter is located at and who ownes it, similar to how investigaters caught the BTK killer in Wichita.

I think he submitted a floppy disk thinking it was anonymous, but was easily traced by the FBI computer forensic specialists to a computer at his church that he had access to.

I don't mind people knowing who I am. That's like not telling someone your name when you meet them in an FBO or on the jumpseat.

It's not like I'm posting national secrets on this board and I try not to abuse anyone unless they deserve it .

Oh, yeah, English is DEFINITELY a woman. A voluptuous, long-legged beaut... Oh, geez! I gotta go!

Hmmmm so when are we having that Flightinfo get together thing?

 

[Mr. Irrelevant]

I've been on here since the board's old format and I'd say only one or two people on this board could match my name to my ID. A few others know I post but not my ID. Maybe my next ID could be Mr. Incognito......
