- the_af 6y agoSo is your argument that this particular person, Ban Tran, is not noteworthy enough and therefore not worth tracking down for a documentary about women in videogames? What part of the article in particular do you think puts "the bar really low"? I don't see it. It seems respectful and not at all intrusive, well within the subject matter and not including extraneous or irrelevant personal information.
- andi999 6y agoThat's not what I meant. I meant tracking down is ok, but not public search. I think it is a privacy invasion, but famous/very noteworthy person have to bear with it (at least that's normally what society agreed about), but normal people at least shd be protected from that. I meant her involvement in the video industry does not justify such privacy invasion.
- LocalH 6y agoBy virtue of what she accomplished, she is noteworthy. If she is found and expresses no wish to communicate on the topic, then it would become harassment.
