It's not unsafe to post public keys because public keys are used for encripting info, and the private keys are used to decrypt it. To read messages on the network without logging on someone would have to steal someone else's private key. It's okay to post your public key, but it's dangerous to import a public key from somebody you don't know.

It would be a good idea to change the netowork name, though. We don't even have to disconnect to do it, I don't think.
