Like Mark said in his post we experienced this at wallhogs. The difference here is that you would like to think that Yahoo has the resources and ability to lock this down. Google has keep it pretty clean and I still shudder when I think of AOL releasing all of that search data. Amazing... Very good points. Like Mark said in his post we experienced this at wallhogs.

As the web continues to become more and more integrated, there will be an ever increasing amount of data that is shared from person to person through sites that are deemed to be "safe". If this is happening at Flickr, it is most likely a problem that other community sites are experiencing as well. Although I do not beleive it will ever come to a point where people that are already on the "web2.0 bandwagon" stop using such sites, this could be a significant inhibiter for late adopters. Just a few thoughts.... Kendall,
