I know in practice, Nextdoor is kind of a hangout for the worst types of HOA/worry-wort/NIMBY type. But, I kinda get this. The whole point of Nextdoor is privacy. Like, there's a type of socialization that only works based on geography (i.e. - my neighbors get to know my address, my comings and goings, my possessions - stuff that should not be shared widely). If the privacy thing is blown up, then there goes the last actual "social" network.

Also, what kind of journalist is going through Nextdoor looking for stories? That's like the laziest, most pedantic muckraking possible. Can you find no one to get a quote from?
