Is it weird if your coworker googles stuff about you?

I mean this happened to me today. I know for sure this wasn't a coincidence as he googled my surname which is unique and he ended up finding stuff about my dad. He "told" me that he came across a file on the internet and knew it was someone from my family.

that's why you should never give your last name.

@FreestyleArt I understand your point but it's not avoidable.

I mean I work for the government and he has access to my files so he'd know it eventually sooner or later.

@FreestyleArt easy for a coworker to find out

@FreestyleArt Not exactly but he does deal with all the employee personnel data.
