> checked his employer's database against outstanding warrants in the US ... That is how bad some people are. Helping to serve justice is now a bad thing?

  Those ends are fine, the problem are the means.

    What's wrong with "the means"?
    • rmc 15y ago
      Breech of privacy/data protection laws in some countries.
      • dennisgorelik 15y ago
        Is it possible to find "wanted" people without breaching privacy laws?
        • icebraining 15y ago
          Sure, that's what warrants are for.
          • dennisgorelik 15y ago
            In order to get warrant police needs some reason to believe that company database contains "wanted" people in it. Obviously police does not have such reason and therefore cannot get warrant. I guess I'm biased because my business makes me to deal with fraud on a daily basis.

          Yes, it's OK for the police to do that. I doubt Joe Soap is allowed treat employee personal details in such a wanton manner.
