It is not the security risk to myself I mind. I knew that when I signed up for this job.

it is the security risk to those who become my wards due to 2257 law.

As webmasters..
You can enlist private whois so nosy people are not able to access your domain info. People who want to reach you through your domain are instructed to email you through the registrar. So much safer than posting your HOME ADDRESS your websites.

Plus, you are not required to list your contact information where you work 20 hours a week on your domain. A lawyer, or office addy will suffice.. with these rules.. you can't. That's different.
