The other thing is... if my friends, my real social network, cannot participate in G+ because they are unwilling and/or it is unsafe for them to have a presence using their legal name and a photo of their face... I can't support the service.
Any social network which TOSes my friends? Does not work as a social network for me.
There's an activist/social justice component happening here (I try to only participate in businesses and services which I can in good conscience philosophically support), and there's also a functionality issue here (why would I want to hang out somewhere where my friends can't hang out?).
