The use of_*INDIVIDUAL PASSWORDS should be required to access MEMBERSHIP
LIST*__*S*_.
If you use your ARRL address, be aware that REPLIES to messages using
the ARRL address, will be from YOUR ISP address (NOT ARRL>)
Likewise, all that's needed to access your street or mailing address, is
to access the FCC Database & lookup your FCC assigned CALL SIGN,
everything that's on the LICENSE APPLICATION IS PUBLIC RECORD.
If you don't want your street address and phone numbers to show up on a
highway billboard, BE AWARE IF YOU PUT IT IN YOUR LICENSE
APPLICATION, it's there for everyone to see.

Hello all!
So I just did a Google search of my call sign (which I will
not be stating again) and the VERY FIRST thing that came up
was my personal email to the club list. I was... kinda shocked
and surprised. I was under the impression these emails were
for club members ONLY. Apparently this email list is posted to
the public and I'm concerned about that. I have personal
information in my signature (name, phone number etc. which may
be used to send me spam calls) that could easily be parsed by
an algorithm... This seems like a major security issue to me
and should be fixed. I have to wonder who is sending these
emails to this website??? If the club is doing this they
should inform us that anything we say on this list is not a
private email but a public statement to all of the internet
and everyone on the planet.
I would appreciate some feedback on this and how this email I
sent to the club was posted publicly on the internet for all
the world to see.... Maybe this is the intent of the club, but
I will certainly think twiceĀ about sending anything out now
and censoring my email signature. This must be laidĀ out
clearly to all new members.
One of many offending post:

<https://www.mail-archive.com/bvarc@bvarc.org/msg09908.html>
The use of the word "Private" is extensive in this page I was
sent with my welcome to the list:
http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org
<http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org>
Look.... I'm not SUPER diligentĀ about reading absolutely
everything I get, but this seems like an extremely important
thing to tell folks... I've been a member for about 2 months
so maybe this has been brought up before. I just feel there
needsĀ to be more transparency if this is how it is.
