I'm too tired to read all that was wrote here. This was an assignment I had to complete for a masters level class - find as much about yourself on the internet as possible. I know where I lived in Texas all property tax records were online, complete with sales and pictures of your house ... all you needed was an address or name to find the information. No sign up to access the information was necessay. Same was true for the county property tax information. Likewise, in Wisconsin all court records are public online. Again no need to provide any information to gain access - just click "agree" and you are in... searches can be completed with just three letters of a last name.
