States have been incredibly lax about the security and privacy of much info. It's "public" by default, not by choice. We all deserve better.
honestly, most of that stuff you have to pay for. here's what i can find on myself: my address, my house value, and... that's about it. i can't even find who i'm married to. :: shrugs :: i guess in general, those things don't mean anything to me with regards to my t or anyone else.

i think it might just be a generational thing. i just haven't seen any convincing argument other than if it's a trigger issue that says i should stop googling people. and like i said, that's someone else's choice, but i'm just not of the same mindset.
Thanks for this!
