Which is why I simply don't use my real name (well, not a full name) for my Twitter account. I have the right to keep my professional and private persona separate, and if someone really wanted to, they could find out where I work anyway. (I'm not tweeting anything extreme in my own view, but there's always someone who will regard it as such, and as you say, what's good about giving people such option to begin with).
