I feel second-hand fear & paranoia on behalf of celebs whose home addresses are public worldwide knowledge.
Anyone can google their address and show up/take pictures/lurk/stalk,
But thankfully most people would never think to do such a thing nor have any inclination to do so,
but the fact that they COULD and sometimes HAVE, is very concerning 😟
I wish sensitive information like that could be kept proprietary and wasn’t so easy for anyone in the world to access.
You know as a matter of fact, it’s much more difficult to find the address of acquaintances we know in daily life. Which is a good thing.
How terrifying it must b for celebrities, so they have body guards and a security detail and full-fledged security system at their houses 😥 it’s exhausting thinking about it.
Welcome to living in Sweden.
With a quick Google search you can find someone’s home address, income, social security number, birthdate, amount of owned vehicles, political work (if any), size of home, criminal record, and much more!
It fucking sucks for it all to be public information, but websites dedicated to collating it all under one roof is even worse.
Dafuq, I always thought that personal data was serious business in Sweden, unpleasant surprise
It is serious business. It’s just that income and address isn’t exactly private information. If the state knows it. Why shouldn’t everyone else? Is it really better that this information is shared with a select few corporations who can use it without insight? Transparency is key to democracy.
We don’t have social security numbers and transparency fucking rocks! Among other perks it makes corruption way harder to pull off.
There’s a very limit between transparency and intrusion to private life. This is well over that limit.
