New Friends

Filed under: Online

Oh joy! Oh rapture! The bonds of friendship forged through a common interest (playing Maple Story) are swiftly established yet easily broken (like expelling a Party Quest member, for instance). But I’m happy to announce a new friend with the IGN: FrenzForEver!

Privacy - Is it too much to ask for?

Filed under: Privacy

On my recent trawl of the Internet using the search engine Google, I have, out of curiosity, typed in my full name (in double quotes) as the search term and got back a few results. Among old school records of past school project teams and other non-sensitive material I chanced upon a page (albeit cached by Google) of a long list of Singaporean NRICs and their owners names. To my horror, I found an entry with my NRIC, full name, email address and a date (presumably the date my details were discovered by the author of the page). Since this page is already up on the Internet and can be searched using Google I shall assume that these details are already publicly available and it is with a sense of duty that I refer you to it’s location, in the hope that the relevant authorities would stumble upon and hopefully remove this dangerous cached page from Google.

Here it is:

Who should be informed of this?
