A personal experience which illuminates the point on thinking about harms re: #opendata on #beneficialownership & company directorship.... I was reading a letter to the editor on a controversial topic from a woman with a generic name and no address given. I wondered who she was.
The justification has to be "there are harms but we think they are worth it". Not "there are no harms/ they are all covered by exemptions"

I think that’s misrepresenting the debate over transparency. Most conversations I’ve had with policy makers have acknowledged these trade offs.
@CountCulture of@opencorporates has written eloquently on this -
Is there anywhere where you have seen this discussion of the small harms written down? I didn't find it in the report (hence disappointment). Its only ever kidnapping ... but i think the bigger question is when should individually identifying information be open data?
