Fine, then you all won't mind when some numbnuts on the other side posts everything about Buckhead, including his picture, on some alternative web site because it's available on his law firm's site? (I imagine that right now, his law firm is absolutely innundated with phone calls and faxes about him, the majority of which are probably not pleasant). Point is, just because it's available on the net does not give one the right to post personal information in an open forum!. (And please, take that "it's open information" arguement and stick it where the sun don't shine - you know what I'm talking about).

So unless you believe that the Soviets had it right with the Komitet Bezpasnosti Gosvardnosti I suggest you rethink your urges.

Nobody did that.

So there was no invasion of privacy.

PMFJI, but having done extensive web research on other topics (genealogy, etc.), I think it's up to all of US to be personally responsible for what we do and do not post about ourselves.......I'm careful never to post my occupation, for instance.....when I have knowledge that I want to post but that would give away my identity, I freepmail it. My FR name is a treasured thing that only my husband knows.....
I hold no grudge against someone who knows my name and wants to look up my phone number or "Google" me. If I have a problem with that, I should unlist my number.

Why did you direct this post to me? I'm not doing a search on anyone. And if I did, I surely wouldn't post it in here.

Wow. Thanks. I didn't know any of this about Buckhead. Now the DUmmies won't have to use Nexis. One may want to practice what they preach.

So you are speaking of invasion of privacy in a moral, rather than a legal sense? Because Post 13 falls nowhere near the legal boundry for invasion of privacy.
