You're getting mocked but you're right. I remember back a few years ago I was able to find where some 3rd grader lived, find his parents, get all his personal info. I gave his parents that info so they'd take his xbox away because he wasn't being safe, but it'd've been equally easy to do something bad with that information. I'm just not a bad person.
The sad thing is there are adults that are exactly as frivolous with their personal info as that eight year old was, and they think that just because they're legally considered adults, they're somehow safe putting all that information out. They aren't, though.

As an aside, it's "err on the side of caution".
