I can do the same thing with Facebook. The lack of email verification has nothing to do with the publicness or lewdness of his email. I've had people create Facebook accounts with my email address too. I just log in and deactivate the accounts.
This guy's "attacker" could have just as easily used a fake email address and done the exact same thing. Even with email verification. Email verification != identity confirmation.
It's actually sad how easy it would be to quickly create a fake Google+ profile, Facebook profile and Twitter account to emulate this person and post equally insidious threats. Is the only difference here that this person didn't have a previous OkCupid! profile to prevent this name-grabbing? Or what?
