There's an awful lot of stuff that can be acquired via a FOI request. That doesn't mean that it should all be compiled and published.

do you like to see your name, address, house value or pics on the inet w/o your permission, my guess is NO

this is no diff. sure its out there, but at least you have to do some digging to find it.

This is all already available and doesn't require much digging at all.

But it flipped the whole equation on its head. People that can't recognize the difference between having information about an individual available upon request and publishing an interactive map that gives the home address of any population sect worry me. Particularly a sect that is viewed as a threat by many people.

First they came for the pedophiles.
...
Then they came for the gun owners--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Not really, Tennessee has an easily searchable property tax website that does have an interactive map that you can click to find out who owns the property, the price they paid for it, basic info, and the tax they pay. You can also search by address or name. Any mapping software can get you a pic of the area too.

If Tennessee has this interactive of a website, that pretty much guarantees any state can implement it if they so choose. We aren't technological giants.

I used it to track down who was building a kart track near me and where it was when they were trying to keep the location hush hush.

Oh, I totally forgot about all the people that feel threatened by anyone that paid more than $xx for a house, especially in the wake of all the publicity of school shootings. So yeah, that's definitely the same thing.

I bet that bastard with the super secret Go Kart track was a potential target for retribution, too!

A map to find specific individuals or properties is VASTLY different than an interactive map with the sole purpose of showing you a sect of the population.

As I said before... you worry me.

The individual Trip doesn't worry me but his sect does, if only because of its sheer size.
