Blog Phobia - Don't Link To Us

Don't Link To Us (http://www.dontlink.com) "links to sites that attempt to impose substantial restrictions on other sites that link to them."

It's strange how some sites display information on a public part of the web, and then ask others not to link to them. I understand how people will freely express themselves in some online journal, or how their emotions are "in process" and do not necessarily reflect yet how they "finally" feel about someone, but still...

Why would you post something publicly, and then try to hide it by asking others not to link to you? Shades of approach-avoidance, right?

Why not just use a sheet of paper or a regular diary (with lock and key) to express yourself? Why continue to use the usually very public web (sometimes to publicly attack others), and then appeal for some kind of false obscurity?

Things to try: a pseudonym, a password-protected site, weird language...

What do YOU think?

Pahabol:
Here's someone who's quite open about her time. It seems that it's the busiest person who has the most time.
