Security Through Obscurity

Though we don't expect to post anything here which would endanger our future prospects at much of anything, one never knows. As a result, this blog should remain unindexed by search engines and won't show up on Blogger's lists anywhere. Just in case, we're using initials rather than names, which should provide a little extra protection in case it turns out to be findable, anyway.

However, it occurs to me that, with advances in machine vision and automatic face recognition techniques, even putting up photos might in the not-too-distant future be as much of a disclosure of identity as the use of names. Curses!
