The real life of posters: Private or public?

[Marley23]

By the way, the Registration Agreement has something to say about this:

@Ed_Zotti

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use the SDMB to post any material that you know or should know is false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, threatening, invasive of a person’s privacy, or in violation of U.S. law. You agree not to post material that in our opinion encourages activity that is illegal in the U.S. We reserve the right to revoke the posting privileges of persons misrepresenting themselves on the SDMB.

The “invasive of a person’s privacy” bit is relevant to the thread topic- not specifically to the phone call question (that should be common sense) but to the broader issue of posting information about someone else.
