- Loughla 3y agoI don't want the information that I've sent to several agencies over the years made public. Some is medical, some is financial. It could be used against me in my field of work. No thank you.
- brobinson 3y agoYou misread the post you're replying to and are agreeing with it.
- robinson7d 3y agoIt’s possible that they’re simply agreeing with it.
- Loughla 3y agoNo they're right. I misread it. Even looking at it again, I think the post I was replying to was saying that nobody would have a problem with releasing their records. I don't see what I'm missing.
- robinson7d 3y agoAh, no in that case you did misread it. They’re saying that “private information shared with a governmental organisation should stay private” is a popular opinion. The “unpopular” and “in what world” act like a double-negative.
- Loughla 3y agoI missed the "un" on "unpopular". Dyslexia is a real turd sometimes. Thank you for the explanation.

- foobarian 3y agoIn a world where it's coerced, like tax returns are.
- madsbuch 3y agoI don't entirely understand. You say, that if information you provide is coerced, then it is OK to make it public? Ie. if I force you to tell me something intimate or personal, I can share it with everyone?
- lotsofpulp 3y agoI would be in favor of all financial data being public.
- madsbuch 3y agoThat is a valid political standpoint. You should vote for somebody who are aligned with it, in what case it would not be private information anymore.
- tivert 3y ago> In what world would it be an unpopular opinion that private information shared with a governmental organisation should stay private? A highly politically polarized one. My understanding is this guy disclosed Trump's tax returns to some liberal news organizations. Many people hate Trump so much that I think they'd oppose this prosecution and characterize this guys actions as a public service.
