I think the collection has limited value at best and likely only a few select pieces. However, To make the point to someone I showed them what they put on the net and then compiled it into a picture of who, what, and even when. They immediately stopped posting all their daily activities and much of the personal stuff. In my case if you can't figure out where I am from a ham call your beyond hope and unlikely to be a risk.
