You have a good point. I feel like a fool now, and with good reason. I
thank you for the correction.

I had misinterpreted the discussion as being accusing Andrew A of
violating the law. There was no reason for me to interpret it that
way, I just did. Given that the personal information was posted before
and accessible to anybody who could read Andrew A's message (except,
as you have pointed out, maybe me...) it does not seem to me that
Andrew A is legally liable in any way.

You're right, of course. My bad.
