Re: U.S. Federal Communications Commission does the same thing..

said by oxymoron69:

Sadly, those that have the most sway (lobbyists) also don't have their home phone number, address and email address posted for public consumption.
The public did not have to provide anything other than an email address to comment. And even that email address could be a throw-away address if privacy is a concern. The other info was entirely voluntary.

Unfortunately, this is the result of an email sent to thousands of users who were clearly not informed properly that this is not your average website to submit your comments. Don't get me wrong here, that was a good move but that was done in a rush time and shit happen sometimes...

On another note, CRTC should be more clear on their website instead of putting such important details in the privacy policy. I can understand that the average guy who received the email did not really had the chance/time to check such details.

Sadly, the fields on the submission form were not marked *optional...
If they were, many would not bother to provide extra info.
Most people did as such because they assume by giving their real info it will ensure their complaint is marked as valid and actually read.

Sorry guys, it was not intended to be a bitch slap. I trully hope you understand i am working in the same direction. That being said, you can't deny it was a rush call and rushed things have some downsides...not trying to blame anyone here !

Best regards, DiskACE

No matter how lousy CRTC privacy policy may be, I don't regret backing you up.

So for all of my gettin' up in arms about this, I don't place any of the blame at your feet.

Only with our impartial regulator.

I would have not put my real information there anyway even though I should.

anyone who puts their real information anywhere on the Internet should not act so surprised if it gets publicly viewed elsewhere...

why do you think facebook is a big joke. its a webpage for " hello ! look at who I am and how many people I can add as friends while joining invites for retarded countless things"

I actually like that Facebook uses real names. I don't really like all the applications that I have to opt-out of one-at-a-time, though.
