Oh I agree it's pointless, I was only arguing it's not harmful.

I am one of those GCers who can easily figure out a PNM's school, but if I (along with 99.9% of the GCers) announce that I know, it's to caution the PNM that she might want to be more discreet. Most GCers who announce they know the school say so to either warn the PNM or just because they are proud to have figured it out and want to pat themselves on the back. Most GCers mean no harm. For the most part, it's the lurkers from the PNM's school that PNMs have to worry about, because someone can read whatever they want on GC without registering. You really don't know who is reading.
