You didn't understand my point.
The topic is all about bounty managers here. They are exposing our email ids through this forum, not the ICOs. Please read my reply above for Hilarious.
I'm not talking anything outside the forum, an ICO company may be selling our contact info after the end of ICO and we can't do anything if they are really doing this.
Can you list down a few examples of that happening actively ? Please link me to a bounty program where a bounty manager is asking for email id's on the forum and not (outside forum such as google spreadsheets)
Again you misunderstood me.
"Outside the forum" I was referring to the ICO companies who may sell the email database at the end of ICO... It is possible, I don't know if you will agree with me or not.
And regarding the bounty managers are exposing our email ids through this forum, they use google spreadsheets for the participants to register and you know it very well.
The List of bounty campaigns exposed email ids:Aeternum in all sheets
Fiancia in social media sheets
On.Live in youtube sheet
FroshFeel in signature bounty
Baappay in all sheets
This is a small list, and are publicly accessible. There is so many of this kind which I've ignored so far. And you may say me lazy because I'm not going to search those again.
I haven't kept any record for the list as a proof and campaign managers can change/hide in future.
Because my intention is not to argue or fight with anyone here, the reason for creating this topic to create awareness of this issue so that in future bounty managers do keep the email ids private.
Although I wouldn't like being treated this way by any campaign manager, I don't think this is a Meta-problem: people volunteer to hand over data in exchange for a bounty, just like they publish their Twitter and Facebook accounts.
I have no doubt most of them use fake accounts anyway, only created to hunt bounties.
I thought meta could be the best board to discuss this issue as I can't think of an appropriate board for the issue to be discussed. Let me know I'll move accordingly.
I would like to know which managers decided not to hide the email addresses...
I've pmed 2 or 3 managers maybe to hide the email id column.
One of them (EquityBase) responded and hidden accordingly and the FianciaCoin did not respond and neither hidden the email id column.
After that I didn't contact anyone for this issue. But I'm thinking to drop a msg in future to every one of them who falls in this issue to hide the column.
