I don't think that she is saying this. What I think Amy is trying to say is that there are safer alternatives then placing information into a public pool. She's right, too - there are alternatives. This is why police encounters in the United States are kept fairly private. True, some information is available via public records (states differ) but it isn't as vast and detailed as people suspect.

Here's a better way of looking at her argument:

There are safer alternatives than full public disclosure
Full disclosure is an option but public disclosure puts individuals at risk
This risk is unnecessary due to alternatives
Therefore, alternatives ought to be utilized
