I checked their web-site, I think they sell our data through so many
different channels. Through their direct mail service, they even seem
to sell personal information of infants ("new parents data"), our
"estimated income," etc, for only a few cents per person ...

As you know, our address and stuff are all available on the internet.
Just see sites like bestpeoplesearch.com, intelius.com, etc. Are they
getting data from companies like choicepoint?
