SDAppraiser didn’t say anything about being in opposition to anything. He just made a comment about the apparent entitlement some of us feel about looking into our neighbors lives. In his defense, I can tell you that appraisers and other banking and financial services professionals who regularly handle personal information are subject to privacy laws that regulate the use and dissemination of that information. You wouldn’t want a professional to take that responsibility too casually.
Just because the personal information is available doesn’t mean that it’s not an invasion of privacy to bandy it about so casually on an internet forum. These people are not rock stars and they haven’t agreed to trade their privacy for fame and fortune.
