Found this line in Cisco’s Web Site Terms of Use (document-2581), seems like there should be a case for this:

“[You also agree not to:] Attempt to collect, store, or publish personally identifiable information (a) without the owner’s knowledge and consent or (b) of a minor under the age of thirteen (13) in any circumstance.”

Maybe something like:  
“This service prohibits the publishing of personally identifiable information without the owner’s consent”

I like this idea,

Possibly something like

| Name | This service prohibits the publishing of personally identifiable information without the owner’s consent |
| --- | --- |
| Classification | Neutral |
| Weight | 0 |

then?

I think this should be a _good_ Case, not neutral, since it protects users Privacy in some way.

It could be compared to [Terms of Service; Didn't Read - Phoenix](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/317), it’s good with a weight of 50 (which IMHO is way too much…)

| Fields | Data |
| --- | --- |
| Name | Prohibits the publishing of personally identifiable information without the owner’s consent |
| Description | Users agree not to publicly post personally identifiable information (name, postal address, contact information…) without the owner’s knowledge or consent |
| Classification | good |
| Topic | [Terms of Service; Didn't Read - Phoenix](https://edit.tosdr.org/topics/52) |
| Weight | 0 |

If no adverse opinions are expressed in the coming days I’ll add the case according to the data of the previous post 🙂  
Edit: the case has been [created](https://edit.tosdr.org/cases/444)
