I concur with Benny. Knowledge is power, and you're usually better off knowing than not knowing (what you don't know can hurt you). You're also assuming that most people are clueless, or can't be bothered to defend themselves. What if someone really doesn't like having someone else impersonate him, and decides to go after such parties with a vengeance? They need all the data they can get to present in court. If the person, on the other hand, really doesn't want to know or doesn't care, then let him make the extra effort to filter the bouncers (at his peril). -Philip
