Thinking about people's personal information:

I've been having a lot of strongly-reactive feelings to these conversations & I'm sorting it out:

1) I work in libraries. At our best, we take personal info/privacy very seriously because historically libraries HAVE been targeted w/subpoenas etc. to get patron data.

1a) Therefore, I'm an advocate of "they can't get what you don't have/keep."

1b) See Connecticut Four for a recent case of this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connecti

2) As I mentioned, the acronym ICE means something else first to me. And THEY are people I worry abt targeting our patrons.

2a) So, to me, giving personal info to ICE == destroying lives.
