WTF...I don't see how this is even related. Have you thought for a second that Scoble's family (his wife and kids) live with him?

In fact, everything that is related to Scoble "personally" is public. You want his direct email, direct phone, cell phone etc, you have it.

I wasn't really trying to imply anything other than it was an interesting contrast. I'm not sure why his wife and kids come into it - is it not possible to be safe if you don't live in a gated community?

There is no such thing as absolutely safe; if your threshold is high enough (and for many rich westerners thinking about their children, it is) then it really is not possible to be safe enough if you don't live in a gated community. (Of course, if you're rationally applying that high a threshold then that implies never driving your kids anywhere).
