I'm actually working on a post right now about what happens when your name gets hijacked. I went through that situation recently and the worst case scenarios are most unpleasant. I've also been looking into the legal rights question after finding 2 major cases involving Hillary Clinton's campaign. Hope to get these posts up soon. Thanks for the questions.
