You can still have full control over your site if you want to.

once someone commented on my blog. they were angry because i titled my post about the teapot dome scandal. my blog post was not about the teapot dome scandal. somehow my blog post seod to the top for a week or so and they were trying to do high school paper research. it was quite amusing.
