Idle Morgue, that link does NOT give the ID of the person

Not me ! ?

the IRS giveth and the IRS taketh away

Idle, the IRS & FBI have no power to declare something like the CoS NOT a church. See the U.S. Const. for more details.

Jens, in the US, if the data is publicly available or freely given, anyone has an innate natural right to copy and store such data.

In some countries, there is a legal obligation on organisations gathering information to declare what they gather on whom.

I give you: COSRECI and their all-purpose data slurp: https://ico.org.uk/ESDWebPages/Entry/Z7365741

To me, this reads more like them dutifully ticking the boxes available. All the boxes available…

(And, yes, it’s an interesting question whether one can get one’s information removed, as is a requirement by the law; anecdotally not an easy task ….)

Exactly Cindy, it has become the ultimate witch hunt and I have seen no precedent for that especially within the scn community who are not on staff or in the SO. Never before have I seen where the public have been targeted so viciously. It will ultimately bring down the church along with all the bad PR. Yes, witch hunts happened in the SO and maybe in the orgs, but usually it was very much more localized and once it got it’s foot in the door it was usually stopped. I am so sorry you have lost 2 kids in this. It is just awful and really is the reason I decided to come forward and speak out. As much as people like to demonize LRH and yes, it is his policies, but they are being used so robotically it drives me crazy…….there is even a policy to NOT use policy to STOP. Scn is very different from what I knew.

Excellent points, Secret and Lois. The church isn’t even following their own HCOB’s and HCOPL’s and LRH written things. It’s all so arbitrary now and you can’t even demand that the staff follow LRH because that would be a for sure declare. The church doesn’t even have to put out goldenrod anymore. All they do is have HCO say to your friends, FB, work associates, family, that you are “no longer in good standing” whatever that means nowadays. They don’t bother to tell you why or even that you are no longer in good standing (at least in my case it was that way.) But with no goldenrod in hand, no written ethics order or SP Declare, all my Scn people including my two kids, disconnected me just on the “no longer in good standing” thing. It is the witch hunt that LRH warned against in the “The AntiSocial Personality” bulletin. The church took my best friend and had her spy on me for 3 months to get dirt on me. They had her ask how I felt about my son being recruited for the SO and that was reported (to see if I was “CI” or counter intention to it.) They had her spy to see if I said anything that was “natter” or “disaffection” against the church. So finally when she confronted me on “do this or I’ll disconnect from you…” she said she’d written a KR on me. I asked why she hadn’t given me a copy of it per policy? I forced her to give me the copy. When I got it, the date it was written was 3 months earlier. She had been spying for 3 months on me… I won’t bore you with all the details… but yes the definition of “in good standing” has changed and is purely arbitrary. And with that alone, a whispering campaign can oust you without even having to write the goldenrod.
