“There are ongoing questions about the privacy of people listed in court records,” says Jason Schultz…. “We think, ‘Wow, it’s in the public record,’ but in reality if it’s in a file somewhere that you can’t Google, it remains private until we need it. Now that records are becoming more public, I think courts are trying to think about how to be sensitive to those interests given that they can be indexed by search engines, copied and reposted.”
