Is there really not a way to submit an express FCC comment that avoids all my personal info being publicly published to the web? Yeesh.

Think of it like a petition or testifying before Congress. The whole point is that you are putting your real name behind it.

And if you think your name and address are private, then I have some bad news for you.

I spend a lot of time filing requests to take down my home address. Most low-hanging fruit options have been scrubbed. I am hesitant to increase the count.

You mean the link between your name and home address? Impossible to scrub. If you're registered to vote, own a home, or many other things, that is legally a matter of public record.

Some people put their home in a trust to avoid this, and not everyone registers to vote.

Yes. You need to stand up as a citizen to have the impact (they cross check).

Publication is probably a bit much as a default and chills speech a bit, but it’s also important that the federal register can remain public with all public comment on the web. These are official comments on the record.

what, they keep no records, or as lege branch they aren't foi-able so you won't ever know if they do or not?

		They aren't publishing them on the web. They probably do keep records, but something doesn't have to be perfect in order to be better.
