Sensitive story should remain in private LPSF List

Dear Ron,

I noticed that you posted on Facebook my story about the Chinese student. It was a good story! However, the student did mention, as I indicated, that what he is doing is dangerous, and he could be arrested or worse. True, he is in the US now, but only temporarily, and will return to the Mainland. My suggestion is that we not reveal his story publicly, just in case we inadvertently give fodder to the Mainland Big Brother to go after these kids. Also, should he or any of his friends perchance see the story on Facebook, he will feel betrayed by us. Can you take the story down?

The other stories that I shared on the LPSF website do not contain any information that might cause someone harm, and I am totally OK with Rob posting that on Facebook.

As I said before, you are doing a super job of publicizing the LPSF on Facebook, and I hope you will continue.

Marcy

Dear Marcy;

Finally getting to my emails.

The likelihood that the Powers that be in the PRC will know who this un-named
guy is who walked into the booths area of the Pride Parade and stopped by the
Outright booth and filled out a Nolan Chart is remote unless he was tailed by
Chinese government spies. If he had been tailed he is a known rebel.

The likelihood that the PRC would read the LPSF web site on facebook as a
regular means to find un-trustworthy citizens who are visiting the USA the PRC
is farfetched.

If he has been in discussions with fellow travelers in China whether privately
or via internet he is already known to the PRC government as the PRC very
rigorously and constantly examines the content of all the various peoples who
speak out against the PRC government whether in person or via the internet.
Neighborhood watchers are still the norm in city neighborhoods.

It's too late to protect the un-named guy from the evil clutches of the PRC and
his dossier they already have on hand. This is presuming he wasn't a plant.
