One thought on “check out the new DC Property Information Verification System (PIVS) website”
While this is a great site in theory, I don’t think the DC government thought through all of the possible ramifications of posting this information with regards to privacy. After reading the “Residential Cases” section of a few homes near mine, I found within the “Detailed Description” section many of my neighbors’ phone numbers and e-mail addresses. This can be especially worrisome given the fact that the e-mail addresses and phone numbers I found were often times embedded in complaints against other neighbors’ homes.
