Google has implemented a new feature which
> enables you to type a telephone number into the
> search bar and hit enter and you will be given the
> person's name and address. If you then hit Map you
> will get a map to the person's house. Everyone
> should be aware of this! It's a nationwide reverse
> telephone book.
>
> If a child gives out his/her phone number, someone
> can now look it up to find out where he/she lives.
> The safety issues are obvious, and alarming!!!
>
> Note that you can have your phone number removed
> or blocked. I tried my number and it came up along
> with the mapquest and directions straight to our
> house. I did fill out the removal form for myself,
> and encourage all of you to do the same. Quite
> scary!
>
> Please look up your own number!!!!!!!
