And I suppose you don't give give your email when you want to post anonymously even it says it won't be published? That's what Wordpress does by default isn't it? I think that's what Disqus also does but it isn't clear. You don't divulge people's information without explicit authorization. Filling in the name field for me is not good. Maybe anonymous is the wrong word. I didn't want my stuff published for the world to see.

Now that I go back to it, I see that it links to my twitter account and provides my first name. I was thinking that just showing my first name would only be kind of bad, turns out I was remembering it incorrectly. It is as bad as I thought it was.
