All,
This just in,
A Realtor friend of mine just e-mailed me with the following information.
Google now is now making it possible for someone to input your phone number
and get your home address, and a map to it too!

This is nothing new. What is the problem?

I haven't tried it yey but she said there is all sorts of personal
information attached.

Only some links to companies who will offer to SELL you personal
information. What is the problem?

There is supposed to be an opt-out function avalable.
May not work if you only have a cell number or an unlisted number, but I
haven't checked that either.


I consider myself a bit of a privacy buff, but I have always been in the
phone directory for a broad range of reasons. There have been phone directories
on the Internet for years, this is no different. What is the problem?

Before I forget to ask, what is the problem?
