    Having information accessible to those who might care to search for it and having it advertised for any passer-by to see are not the same thing.
    So you remove yourself from the phonebook?

    But you can't remove yourself from the county tax databases....which are public record and easily obtainable--some even post it freely and openly on the web. In some cases you can not only find the address, but also get a picture of the property, a property card with a diagram for the basic layout of the home, how much it's currently appraised for, how much it last sold for...even manage to find out a person's last reported annual income. Just from using their name.

    Not exactly the best example to use in this debate.
