[Genealib] RE: Genealogies and privacy

[Grimshaw, Kathy]

I actually had this issue with my name being included in an on-line
family tree. I asked the person who posted my family tree to remove the
information about living relatives and replace it with the term
"living".

Maybe I'm paranoid, but I don't want my birth date, place of birth and
mother's maiden name posted for the world to see- not because I care if
people know how old I am, but because these are pieces of information
commonly used as security questions by financial institutions, and in
this age of identity theft, I would prefer to make it has hard as
possible for someone to get my personal info.
