That's very trusting of you, Bart, and perhaps the police in Suginami, Japan are less likely to SWAT you than those in the USA, but you are placing trust in the population of the internet not to misuse the information you've shared, and that, in my view, is simply a case of security by obscurity.
- Aeolun 5y agoPoint taken. That said, we used to have phone books with everyone’s name, number (and address?) distributed to everyone in town. I guess people are just bigger assholes when they’re not within throwing distance?

- Kbelicius 5y ago> placing trust in the population of the internet not to misuse the information As far as this draft goes there is no such thing going on. The end of anonymous websites in EU as one member of the pirate party put it (and this article is claiming/accusing him of not reading the draft) has no bearing on the public. In this context it is similar to the end of anonymous bank accounts. Even thou there are no anonymous bank accounts I, as a member of the public, still can't get anybodies personal information from a bank.
