The text is a response from man Dick Armey regarding concerns about the P-TRAK service from Lexis-Nexis. The service contains personal information of individuals and is used by investigators and attorneys to locate people. The database does not contain sensitive financial or medical information, but it does include names, addresses, phone numbers, and sometimes birth dates. Social Security numbers were removed from the service due to complaints, but users can still search for them. Lexis-Nexis offers methods for individuals to request the removal of their personal information from the database.
