Easy fix.Once you have their email address, submit it to the church of Satan's mailing list.

They were coming to my area less and less. Actually, months before the pandemic they had not been seen at all.

Also...isn't it simpler to just block their calls and throw their mail in the garbage like a normal person instead of joining a FB group to beyotch?

Ent…. They just evolving because of pandemic. Door to door not allowed or not advised. You can come , call, mail whatever I’ll ignore you the same way very politely. Y’all make to much of a issue of little things.

You seem upset.
Just treat it as spam/junkmail and move on with your life.

Used to see them on the street sometimes before covid handing out Watchtower booklets. Just used to say thank you but I won't read them so it's best you hold onto it. That group probably was made by a Jehovah witness for all you know

I don't think upset is the correct word to use.

Jehovah's Witnesses are obtaining your full government name and residential address from who knows where. Citizens are receiving letters at addresses barely known to anyone. This is a serious threat to one's personal information and safety.

I would advise anyone here to look at the comments posted under Kess Ramsey video https://www.facebook.com/itsjustkess/posts/344485673705685

If Jehovah's Witnesses can obtain the full name and address of any citizen, who else can???

Between the directory and voting list this isn’t really private info.

The last voting list I saw did not have your address.

[j.o.e]

The voting list certainly has your address. Trust me.

[gastly369]

Had a nice mixed golden brown eye with those spring curls hair use to pass.... Eh see she longtime nah

[Ryan197912]

Yes it contains the name and address of everyone 18 and above in TnT.

Jehovah's witness approaches me while I'm doing yard work
Jehovah's witness: I was wondering if I could have a moment of your time.
Me: My time is made up of a multitude of moments, and I sell my time iby the minute, and a rate of $50 per minute or part thereof, payable up front. How many minutes do you want?
Jehovah's witness: never mind, you seem to be busy
Me: yes I am. Where's my $50 for the time I used entertaining your desire for free handouts of my extremely valuable commodity?

For some reason unbeknownst to me, they never came back.
I not vex they never returned, but they still owing for the 27 seconds they used. So as far as I concerned whoever comes next hadda clear the arrears before we engage in dialogue again.

[aaron17]

I got a handwritten letter....and they say they got my contact either the ebc or ph. book. Where they does get time to handwrite letters is beyond me.

[MaxPower]

I tell the JWs i do not discuss my faith and i am unable to accept any flyers.

Remember these are human beings and we have to treat them with respect even though they may come across as harassing or annoying to us.

When was this change made? Because the voting list I have is about 4 years old and it only has names (https://www.filemail.com/d/wsklgnkazrkyzsd)

It was always with address. Didn’t check your link but what you have is most likely purged of addresses. Because for verification purposes a voting list without addresses is a waste.
If you ever voted throw your mind back to the list they use to scratch off in the polling both.

[SLVR1]

I got 2 letters. My shredder ate them.

I don't think that it is acceptable for any citizen to be receiving letters from strangers to whom citizens:
- have never given their home address to
- have never published their address to anyone, not even the bank or TSTT.

[ProtonPowder]

I got a handwritten letter from a JW about maybe 6-8 weeks ago.

When I saw a handwritten letter addressed to me in the mail for the first time in my life I was a bit taken aback, and then steupsing loudly when I opened it.

No secret admirer for you, only JW iymc

You know JW has a networked community presence as well, right?

Chances are someone in your community who is a JW knows your name and obviously your house number and got the info through basic social engineering/low tech.

How do you deal with spam and other unsolicited snail mail or flyers stuck in your mailbox?

[lssjr]

How do you deal with spam and other unsolicited snail mail or flyers stuck in your mailbox?

Do these flyers have your address on it? No

Do you receive these flyers in an envelope with paid postage? No

What right-minded person would give their address to some random stranger? Hardly likely.

I think you are missing the bigger picture - Jehovah’s Witnesses are systemically obtaining anyone's address and their full government name; storing this information somewhere; and sending random citizens religious letters. This is a serious security threat to one's personal information and safety. The same cannot be said about flyers randomly dropped in your mailbox.

If you want to condone what can be called "an invasion of one's privacy" and "forcing one's religion on others", that's on you. However, I would not stand twiddling my fingers and idly watch this from the sidelines.

"Forcing one's religion on others", you say.
I guess flyers for barbecue support, grocery specials are also forcing themselves upon you...lol.
