On Integrity

While InsureBlog is not a political blog (or at least partisan), the nature of the topics we address necessarily reflect a political viewpoint. Hopefully, this is a by-product, and not an intentional theme.

There are, however, a lot of poliblogs out there, and sometimes things "get out of hand." So a bipartisan group of bloggers has started Online Integrity, a blog dedicated to promulgating these principles:

■ Private persons are entitled to respect for their privacy regardless of their activities online.

■ Public figures are entitled to respect for the non-public nature of their personal, non-professional contact information, and their privacy with regard to their homes and families.

■ Persons seeking anonymity or pseudonymity online should have their wishes in this regard respected as much as is reasonable.


■Violations of these principles should be met with a lack of positive publicity and traffic.


InsureBlog is proud to be among the earliest signatories of this endeavor, and we urge other bloggers to consider endorsing it, as well.

Happy blogging!
