This is what LL claim to be doing with Age Verification. Well how about they lead by example. Why doesn't every Linden now put their real name, age, sex and location at the top of their 'in world' profile?
I would be willing to bet that if they did that this whole issue would disappear.

There's, uh, probably a lot of things you didn't know about lindens. Another, another interesting, uh, lindenism, uh, there are only three jobs available to a linden. The first is making shoes at night while, you know, while the old cobbler sleeps.You can bake cookies in a tree. But the third job, some call it, uh, "the show" or "the big dance," it's the profession that every linden aspires to.

Name and approximate location is really all you need. With that you can get all the rest for a minimal fee from a number of services on the internet.

For several weeks now I've been looking for an animated crab along the lines of Yersinia, my adorable rat. I think I'll have to wait until this meme has died out of the forums. What are the odds of that ever happening? Happy Friday! |

Only a crazy person is going to put their real name first and last and the city they live in on their profile.
ANYONE can find you then. The other stuff I can see people displaying. I can see city you live in even but not combined with full name. |

To be fair, I can see corporate leaders of known megacorporations placing their identity in the public domain, since it is essentially already there. otoh, I can't see them as being the actual player behind the avatar - that's what employees are for after all.
