[net.legal] legalities of posting surveys

drb@druri.UUCP (BurrittDR) (03/05/84)

I was wondering what legal implications are involved if a person
takes a survey on the network and then posts the survey to the
network.

For example, if a person asked the network for suggestions on good
(and bad) doctors in the area that he/she lived. Can the person get
into trouble if all the responses are compiled and posted to the
network for the entire world to see??? Or should the person just
say that the list is available and make anybody who wants it make 
a deliberate effort to request it. The person who compiled
the list could then 'mail' it to whoever requested it.
