There are differences between many privacy issues - and states doing
this is a clear invasion of privacy. The problem is, people don't sue
enough to stop these things, and those who do usually don't do it in a
way that will make the people stop such bad behavior. Think about it: I
have to pay to keep my information out of the phone book that they make
money on. It should be the other way around: they should NOT put in ANY
information unless I ok it and they should not charge me anything to do
so. The state requires a drivers license: I have NO option to stop them
from invading my privacy if I legally want to drive. What kind of
nonsense is that?
Review by Listowner is the right approach, and the only approach, to
safeguard privacy. I guess conceal should work the other way around to,
but that's a moot point with Review by Listowner.
