[quote=Anonymous]I'll chime in as a typical dcum user.  If registration had been required across the board prior to this point people could put together the following, plus more, about me:

Where I grew up
Where I live now, down to the neighborhood
My first name
My age
Ages of my children
My profession
My husband's profession
My kids' preschool, elementary and middle schools, sports and camps 
Where I went on vacation last summer
What kind of dog I have, his age and where we go for training classes
The kind of cars we drive

That's just the beginning.
Identifying who I am would be an absolute breeze for those who know me, even slightly. Anything I post that I would like to keep private- family/marriage issues, depression, personal health issues, political opinions, problems with friends and neighbors, problems with teachers, EVERYTHING could lead back to me even if I use an invented username.

That's how it would be for a lot of people.  There's no way dcum would be the same creature if registration were required, like it or not.
