Yes It was a bit vague. Sorry!

Well I added my name to the petition against software patents.  Then 
they send an Email to verify your identity (Email address) I assume.  
In that Email that you are asked to reply to,  the headers contained 
information about several of my Email alias that I use and two of my 
ISP neither of which I used when I added my name to the petition. 

I am concerned about the additional information that is there about 
accounts and alias that I use with various clients.

Now I agree that I make mistakes and sometimes forget to use the 
correct alias for this list, as I did for the last post.  But that 
shouldn't reveal other ISP or alias, should it?

             Derrick.
