I think it's a valid issue, and I feel uncomfortable about it too. Don't think it rises to the level of stompie edit, but it just seems wrong.
I already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
If someone posted MY political contributions here without my consent, I'd be plenty annoyed. I think it does deserve a stomping, if Jack doesn't volunteer to edit.

Just to clarify -- I absolutely think it was rude. But since it's publicly available information, I don't think we should stomp it. Have we ever stomped any post that wasn't spam or a spoiler?

I find it interesting that, according to the user ID number, this person is not a newbie (relatively, anyway).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No kidding. It's one reason I haven't chimed in. I think it's rude, but not out of line.

I've seen similar information posted about other Jossverse people, though probably on LiveJournal rather than here. I don't find it offensive, but I understand why someone might.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm not crazy about it, either. OTOH, similar to what Lyra jane says, I saw a post on another board quantifying the donations Rafael Palmeiro made to GWB, and didn't bat an eyelash. Unfortunately, the information is public.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
