What basis do you have to release this type of information? Are you
hoping that nobody will want to visit your site anymore?

The above is an example of something that would be appropriate to post on
your website with no more detail than shown.

This is completely uncalled for behavior. You really have no clue about
what might make someone want to hire you.

You can't seriously believe that if anyone from one of the sites above
had been reviewing your code and thinking about recruiting you that they
would after seeing this do you?

There are usenet groups for posting resumes. What you should be
apologizing for is posting the sites from which people access your
web page. If doing so was a violation of site policy, it could
even lead to someone being fired.
