Re: Need For Site?

[Dynalysis of Princeton <mail@dynalysis.com>]

Regarding your communication. I am not sure what needs to be validated but if validation is needed, you might want to have a repository where individuals can dial in and provide information as a beginning.  There could be disclaimers that are appropriate for such an undertaking.  Certainly the purpose for the collection of information and the disposition of the information must be clear to all.

"Privacy" is not just being eroded where you can see it in the law.  It happens very day as you simply try to accomplish small things.  The attitude about privacy is what is alarming.  Go to knowx.com and take a look at what you can buy for almost nothing.  If a site like knowx.com can exist, why not a site to track the types of demographics which reveal the status of commitment by medical personnel to privacy.  Things are evolving out here and the best seat in the house is the average
persons.

If so, and this practice is blossoming across the Internet, maybe the time has come to locate a site that lists such companies which include such "boiler plate".  I would certainly make use of it, and I am sure it would be a good first step to curtail the practice.  I will donate a domain [currently unused, and without a name] if anyone thinks this is worthwhile at this point. Thanks, Tom
