I have already said that the zone visit contained absolutely nothing crazy or objectionable, nothing about Tight Pants, the end coming, child abuse, blah blah. Just the Watch Tower study urging children to get baptised and that they're still accountable to Jehovah before getting baptised, then a load of stuff about the Britain Bethel, L.D.C and campaign Experiences, then a long talk basically saying 'endure' and feel good about serving in the Organization.

Would of rarther spent the afternoon with my husband but I went to the Britain Zone Branch visit broadcast and it was far from special, comprise of;
- Chelmsford update how amazing it is
- Britain L.D.C projects update
- Special campaign experiences
- An update about the printing press at London bethel
- A 75-minutes Talk about don't give up, remember that all bad things we see, hear and feel are because of Satan, and keep going. Feel your role in Preaching isn't significant? Think of the worldwide Brotherhood.
That was it.

Example of sensitive data – should I be worried?
by Fay Dehr in### here's a link to a high-quality version of the above form: https://1drv.ms/u/s!amcrvjcxi6m6a2mdhysjdll3m00 ###.
the attached image is the rear of form a-27; this is just example of many forms that contain personal data.
i’d like to know: should i be worried?.

Fay Dehr, I think G.D.P.R makes your statement that "publishers are forbidden access to this data" wrong, as a key principle of the new laws is that data subjects can request all data held about them?

Brothers with hearts. Where are they?
by stillin inone poster here mentioned how, after he was appointed as an elder, things took on a more "corporate" feel.
i was an ms and as such went, dutifully, to the bi-annual meetings with the co. i was sorely disappointed.
i had imagined sort of a round-table discussion of trends and potential difficulties in the congregation, along with a coordinated effort to help people out.

I can think of countless examples of Brothers, mainly Elders, showing no real love or understanding, totally like the Pharisees and not at all like Jesus.
Also, I am often told stories by mentally-in J.W's who complain how such a Brother has mistreated them in some way. I gently sow a seed in there minds by saying; "We should all be more like Jesus". They agree with me, say it's something to do with the Organization being made up from imperfect human men, and then say how wonderful The Truth is, contradicting themselves. *facepalm

The combination of the A.R.C, the Christian Life And Ministry Mid-Week Meetings and the launch of J.W Broadcasting television woke me up big time and I have been pretty sick since, battling with being P.I.M.O for family.

I am surprised any G.B member showed up, after the theatrics of Geoffrey Jackson and Gerrit Loesch in recent years! There's talk in the news of Trump facing a subpoena but surely he could just ignore it like Gerrit did?

GDPR: help for PIMOs
by Fay Dehr inwe urgently need to offer "resistance strategy" help to pimos who are likely to be harassed by elders seeking their consent for wtbt$ to leech their data.
what questions could pimos ask elders, that elders would be unable to answer?
(thus buying time, because elder would need to "check with branch").

Too late unfortunately but I intend to request copies of the judicial letters they have previously refused to provide me. If they are so proud of G.D.P.R, they should comply, huh?

I actually said to the Elder that the Form doesn't need giving back to them until later in May when G.D.P.R comes into affect; but he said they needed it done that same day to get their Paperwork in order for then the C.O visits or something.

What if you prefer to put coins or bills in the contribution box at the Hall and not use the JW borg Web site?

My Group Overseer told me "it must be signed today" so I used a fake signature.
I have seen people on J.W forums say G.D.P.R is nothing to worry about as the Jobo's only store information like Address and hours preached. I'm still a bit concerned about the Blood Card and Medical Records stuff and after reading this thread am worried about financial Data. But the Elders and Borg are so busy thesedays they probly don't have time to snoop.
