>>>According to WorldNetDaily, a website called Prop 8 Maps combines Google Maps technology with a list of the names, donation amount and location of anyone who donated $100 or more to Prop 8.

For several years the same tactic has been used to publicize the locations of people on sex offender lists. The general purpose is the same, to incite harassment against the persons so listed. When we had threads on the subject, approval was nearly unanimous.

This genie is out of the bottle. Tech always cuts both ways.

Thing is, Any sane person would agree with keeping track of rapists ans child molesters, however tracking and harassing folks based on their politics and religion is another. Seems you're unable to see the difference.
