Would you like to share your full name and birthday with the world?

I wouldn't. Therefore it is private.

That would disclose way more information than just my name and age. You would then be able to associate that information with my HN username and all the data associated with it.

idbehold can't post his or her name and birthday without revealing he or she is the owner of the idbehold hacker news account. Which is more information than name+birthday, it's name+birthday+hacked news posting history.

> dbehold can't post his or her name and birthday..

Not sure why you're replying for someone else..

> This is a random guy. His named ERNEST BELL JR and his birthdate is 10/05/1959. Inmates obviously lose some rights when convicted. Data security is minor compared to losing the freedom of movement.

Also doesn't surprise me that Florida would make all information on its inmates public.
