I understand why the providers have their screening methods as to weed out potential dangerous individuals. What protects the Jon from having his personal information shared between the SWs? How will the jons personal information be protected? The SW are always crying out that they don’t want to be outed by people to their friends and /or family, but don’t the men’s privacy also be upheld to the same standard?
 
Clients have all the protection they will ever need. SIMPLY: CHOICE! What else do you want or need

Just because we say something about our protection doesn’t negate your need for protection either.

As stated above you have choice. Choice that should be based on GIS, Ads, Websites, SM and reviews/review boards. That is how you screen to ensure you are choosing a professional or one that you can base your choice on what makes you feel safe.

But it is all just best guest.

For us, we have a choice as well. We can set out screening standards, our rates, our schedules and locations and even our clients to a point so that we base our choice on what makes us feel safest.

But it is all just best guest.

It seems pretty equal when you think about it.

I've been burned on deposits before, so I'm a salty cracker in that regard for the most part.
I see no reason why the possibility to be burned with personal information leaking or doxxing could not exist.
Professionals exist for a reason, but despite their reputation there is nothing that says they cant do something awful.

Providers should want to protect themselves and clients should want to protect themselves too.
I won't be the one to give over everything about myself, but plenty of others will.
Likewise, I surely don't think a provider should see just anyone out of concern for their safety and health.
Given that, reasonable people can come to reasonable terms.
Just note, that your decision has an impact on the norm and what the future of hobbying will look like.

Any concessions can make a difference and once a line have been moved, it's difficult to move it back.
