Blizzard surely can't be serious about this? Can they?

I like WoW - like it enough to spend the time and money to multibox it. I've played it since Beta, but I'll drop it in a heartbeat if I feel there's any chance of other players, forum posters or the like getting hold of my real (and relatively unique) name.

As a hirer of employees myself, I've for a while now included google and facebook searches on prospective employees, and I'm personally aware of at least one person dismissed from their job for what they wrote on their Facebook page (they'd been claiming to be sick, but were in fact off visiting family in Canada).

I have my own reasons for maintaining my anonymity on the Internet, Blizzard doesn't need to know them or care about them, just respect them. There isn't a service/convenience/product/game or item that would ever induce me to willingly give up that anonymity.
