[CQ-Contest] Two points for intra-NA QSOs in CQWW?

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

Strictly speaking, that is not my log.  That is a synthesis of what the
computer "thinks" is my log, based on other submitted entries.  

And, at least technically, specific personal information that would be in my
submitted log is not included in this synthesis.

The broader point is that this demonstrates exactly what I've been talking
about.  It is bad enough that, in general, our rights to privacy and
confidentiality in personal matters is getting more eroded every day.  And
it is unfortunate, to say the least, that others (wittingly or unwittingly)
have conceded their rights, for what they are told is the 'greater good' --
sometimes it is, but sometimes it's not.

This demonstrates that there are those who have few if any reservations
about making public others personal or private information... and then using
it against the wishes of those individuals.

Regardless... I know that I'm wasting my time discussing this with the
majority who are active on this forum.  It is contrary to many opinions, and
to many others, they are tired of hearing it.  So be it.  

But I am disappointed, to say the least, that you expect me to abandon my
principles because someone else lacks scruples.

I may be wrong.  But I am not intentionally a hypocrite.

Ron,

IIRC, the primary reason you stopped submitting logs is because you 
objected to the logs becoming "public", viewable by anyone.

Well, you can start submitting logs again, because despite your best 
effort, your log is public, anyway. See

73,
Steve, N2IC
