Solved by using a "trash" account.

Which if you don't have one, you should get one.
Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail even...though imho it's better w/ yahoo or hotmail. An account you use to sign up for things you'd otherwise want to remain anonymous or might have emails coming in (like newsletters or adverts).

Hopefully it's minimal, but someplace an office in an industrial park might have received some mail.

Should I ever plan on actually buying anything, I will then provide correct information as it means I'm entering into a real relationship with them.
Is it an advertising tool on their part to get new business, thus requirement being truthful information? Probably advertising, but requiring accurate information? *shrug* I never give my social security number to anything remotely similar to marketing, even if it asks, regardless of whether it's "Fill out card for free or for chance to win" or anything more serious. Financial, government, medical, or occasionally job contracts are the only thing I'd display that # on.

Someone asks me my name on the street in passing or perhaps at the sample counter at the local grocery store, I am not obliged to give my real name - or at least not my full name.

Another twist is an online presence. I'm betting your name isn't Jetspice in the physical world. To most of the internet I *am* "NetCog". Though to assorted other corners I am assorted other names. For "NetCog's" purpose he has a specific "real" name. The location might be fudging it as I (NetCog) don't consider myself to be in NY.

To continue down that train of thought - (video) games, movies, etc all could be considered "false witness" or at least "lying" by different filters of thought. Shoot...even sport teams could be lumped in.

I'm offering this post here as a simple counter thought. I'd be willing to continue this discussion on another thread. If you want to start it, I'll copy this response to it.

A) steveth45, reproaching your christian brothers is not only acceptable but our responsiblity. he hasn't gone over the edge. he was rather civil.
frankly, civility isn't a requirement. it has it's place, tho.
frankly, those prophets of God weren't exactly soothsayers.

B)netcog, being honest isn't about giving your personal information to all who ask. Lying is about decieving. we all know your name really isn't netcog. you are decieving us. it's just a handle.
but when giving fake addresses to this company, you are implying that is accurate information. (sometimes even more, when you sign an agreement staying that it is accurate) you are deceving DAZ. sure, they might not even care, but does it make your act blameless?
if privacy is such a big deal, don't get the product.

mmm, I'll review my stance.

I think I might make a new thread, there's more I'd like to say.

on the other side, it IS lying to make up an identity, you DO bring up a good point there. even if they are a bunch of people trying to market your personal information without your consent, you should act based on how God wants you to, not on how other people treat you.

Maybe it was aimed to Christians only and I don't think he did anything wrong by doing so because every Christian should - how would you say it - "hear the word" since we are followers of Christ. But we are not to expect other than Christians to do this, that is true.

The foundation from which I speak is to see the people of Christian coders accomplish the dreams that God has put in their heart. He has given us all the tools we need to succeed. As we run toward our calling, the only thing that can get in our way is ourselves. So this, to those who need to hear it: position yourself so that God can bless you. Give right information. Do things like pay taxes, destroy pirated software, install protection against pornography--do whatever it takes to get right. And then be blessed!

And back on topic, I think I'll download Bryce 5.0, too!
