I use Legacy to suppress living information. Most people are interested in people from long ago anyways. Finding out who people are related to today usually only requires and phone call or two which anyone can do. Even though the 1930 census is public, I still won't publish it unless the person is deceased.

When I first distributed my tree I set all living people to private and got a howl of protest from them. They wanted to see themselves listed along with everyone else. Now, when I add new living people I also ask about their preference. Haven't had one yet that wants to be shown as "living so and so."
