What on EARTH are you talking about now?
You appear to be concerned that your hostname contains secret information,
and that having your hostname "leaked" to the rest of the world will be
an issue for you?
If that's the case, try not putting secret information into your
hostname. E.g. naming your machine my_mothers_maiden_name_is_johnson
might be a bad idea.
Hope this helps.
P.S. Your text formatting is quite difficult to read. Please separate
your lines from the quoted lines with a blank line, and please do not
indent your lines.
