I requested for the list of names only for the purpose of sending invitations to some of my friends and I wanted to ensure that they are not already members of the group. As my correspondence reveal I was not aware of the existence of the Yahoo group initially. Only after receving the clarifications received , I came to know the existence of the two groups. As you rightly in your reply to Shri Venkatraman said the list of members of one group can be viewed by the other members if they log into the group account which I was not aware of. Further we know the email ids of most of the members who send mails on various subjects for the benefit of the Group members. So I dont think that there is any breach of privacy here. I also want to assure you as a responsible senior citizen that the list of the members will not be misused by me for any purpose other than for sending inivitations to my friends who are not members. Further I wish to mention that the email id of Shri P.Venkatraman is not found in the list of Google Group members forwarded by you and I could not see his mail id in the list of Yahoo group since I dont have access to the list as a non member.

The group membership can be seen by all the other members freely. It is not our decision but the decision of the facilitator namely Google. If you have any complaints you have to take it up with Google and not us. If you have any problem with your privacy requirements please delete your name from the membership. So log as you are a member of the Group all mails, whether you like the contents or not is going to reach you. As responsible seniors we should also develop some tolerance to the views of others.

In the US / UK this act constitutes a breach of data privacy. Which means that as an individual, I have the right to keep my personal data ( such as email ids ) private. If I join a group, then the moderator has no right to give out the email ids to anyone without asking me. Unsolicited Commercial Messages ( aka Spam ) is also an illegal act. As the owner of the email id, I have a reasonable right to see that my time and attention is not diluted by undesirable messages. Giving out my email id to persons who have no reason to posses it, without my permission is not desirable. Sorry if this constitutes a breach of PIP / PIP, since this involves everyone here. ----- Original Message ----- From: ramanujam thiruvenkataswamy To: thatha_patty@googlegroups.com ; thatha_pa...@yahoogroups.com Cc: Saibaba SV ; cheenu1...@gmail.com Sent: Friday, August 07, 2009 6:25 PM Subject: [Thatha_Patty] Re: List of members of the group Dear Shri Cheenu, Kindly clarify, With by best wishes, T.Ramanujam --- On Fri, 8/7/09, Saibaba SV <svsaib...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Saibaba SV <svsaib...@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: List of members of the group To: "MGK Nair" <mgkn...@gmail.com>, "Srinivasan MS" <srinivasan.ms2...@gmail.com>, "ramanujam thiruvenkataswamy" <raman_tamba...@yahoo.com> Cc: thatha_patty@googlegroups.com Date: Friday, August 7, 2009, 10:25 AM Dear Sir Thank you for forwarding the list of members in an excel file format. I have also received the link to the list of members from Shri Ramanujam Thiruvenkataswamy. On comparision it appears names in both the lists are not same. Whereas the list sent by Shri Ramanujam contains 318 names, your list contains 160 names only. Most of the email ids in your list belong to Gmail whereas the email ids of Shri Ramanujam relate to Yahoo mail. Further when I clicked the Members in the mail sent by Shri Ramanujam it takes me to Yahoo Group and it says that I am not a member of the group whereas in the list provided by you my name appears indicating that I am a member since I have joined the Google group. It seems that there are two different thatha_patty groups one belonging to Yahoo group and another of Google Group. But the mails sent by both group members are coming to all of us. Please clarify this for the benefit of all members.
