There are multiple reasons for this, first and foremost even if you believe you should be allowed to know about criminals you may be interacting with I do not agree that most of that info should be publicly available in a simple REST request where anyone from Stalkers, to other criminals can get any information they desire on me simply by paying a small fee. That is an extreme privacy violation IMO. you are looking at only from the Rose Colored "Catch a criminal" lens, and not considering any of the consequences. Further I do not trust the government or the legal system at all, and have no reason to believe a person convicted of DUI or raping a child under the current legal system was in fact guilty of those charges. Lastly even if a person is a criminal I do not believe in the notion of a Scarlet Letter society which is what this company is companies like it are attempting to create. This effectively kills any Second Chance a person that made a mistake in the past has. You forever make them second class and ultimately encourage them to commit more, and probably ever increasing violent crimes |
