I love this part:

'If a customer determines that an image is posted on our website that
contains a social security number, drivers license number, or mother's
maiden name, that customer may request that the image be "removed" from
website viewing by emailing a no-fee request for immediate response and
submitting a document for recording that audits and documents this
process," Logan wrote.'


So the result is that we have to constantly monitor every possible
place that our records (hmmm... driver's license, auto license, voter
registration, marriage records, real estate purchase, business
license) could possibly be kept, not knowing who posts it, where its
posted, WHEN its posted, and then send an official request before
someone mines the data.  Yeah, that sounds pretty workable. (NOT)
