Jokes apart, you joined CP and openly admitted to Welsh Tendencies. The point here is that on peeple, I could create a profile* for you and say what I liked about you.
* Actually I can't as I don't have your phone number, but I do have Dave's.

Everybody here already says what they like, so it's not really different!
But I'll give you a clue: my mobile number starts "07" and has eleven digits.
There may be a small prize for the first person to guess the rest correctly when they ring it and say the magic phrase "Is Dave there?"

Well that is the difference. Here, you signup for the abuse and should it prove too much you can choose to leave. With this new 'service' your profile is created by anyone entering a review of you and you will not have the right to remove either the content or your profile.
It hasn't launched and I can already hear the lawyers drinking their fees in month long binges!

Yeah, I know - but it'll get stamped on pretty hard as soon as "someone important" gets reviewed badly. Obama, or Nicolas Cage for example.

I laughed much harder at this than I should have.

He thinks he's important.
And he's probably right - it can't be his talent or acting ability that keeps on getting him roles...

It's his last name that keeps getting him roles.

Just by pure coincidence the eleven digits can be transformed to "TheOverlord".

If everyone just adds a negative rating for both Nicole McCullough and Julia Cordray, they will soon get tired and shut it down.

That was my first thought as well. Not sure I would want to give these airheads (I have other descriptors for them as well, but in contrast to them I am mindful about what I put out there) the attention though.

Who cares? Let people say what they want to say. They can already. Yes, this makes it easier, but anyone who is dumb enough to believe all they read on the internet is someone I don't need to deal with anyway.

The big deal here is, I would suspect, is that they collect your info and don't remove it (such as phone number). And they do so without your own consent. Sure, the NSA does it, but that's because we have no real say-so over that.

Hm. The white pages have always done that and as far as I know, I never gave my consent. Perhaps it is inherent in requesting a phone number that you give your consent for some things.

Except it is the 'reviewer' who gives your phone number, and you don't sign up but an automated profile is created...
... a profile YOU cannot remove.

Now I am quite curious. When did the white pages start publishing cell phone numbers?

Who knows? Are you saying they don't do cell numbers? I guess you can go to http://www.whitepages.com/[^] and find out.

Let's see if I have this right.
You assert cell phone numbers are published in the white pages.
You send me to a web site that charges money.

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-

That is all.

Not even close.

Where? I said that phone numbers have been in the white pages forever. I don't have a cell phone and also haven't used the whitepages since the internet came around so I don't know what they are doing regarding cell phones. Don't care either.

The white pages was the business mentioned, so yes, I sent you to their website.

Yup, just as I suspected. Here, let me give you the full lyrics.
THE SIDESTEP
From : "The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas"
(Carol Hall)
Charles Durning
Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see.
I assure you, and I mean it- Now, who says I don't speak out as plain as day?
And, fellow Texans, I'm for progress and the flag- long may it fly.
I'm a poor boy, come to greatness. So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie.
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.
Now my good friends, it behooves me to be solemn and declare,
I'm for goodness and for profit and for living clean and saying daily prayer.
And now, my good friends, you can sleep nights, I'll continue to stand tall.
You can trust me, for I promise, I shall keep a watchful eye upon ya'll...
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.
Now, Miss Mona, I don't know her, though I've heard the name, oh yes.
But, of course I've no close contact, so what she is doing I can only guess.
And now, Miss Mona, she's a blemish on the face of that good town.
I am taking certain steps here, someone somewhere's gonna have to close her down.
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep...
And, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step...
Cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

I see. So, when you are told that you misunderstood, instead of doing the adult thing and apologizing and asking for clarification, you instead chant like a little child.
Not interested troll.
