Geni.com is very adept at privacy violating, and sends out tons of spam...

I will NOT be fixing any errors, nor will I be approving any merges any more...
I will just be standing by and watching 43 years of Genealogy research just fall apart, because Geni says they own my tree now, and allow anyone (except myself) to edit (or worse, delete) my data...

I feel completely violated by Geni, especially when I get 400 emails in the last 3 years that say "A Geni profile you manage has been deleted"... no permission request from the deleter, just a deletion... Including my son getting deleted by someone who lives in India, and has no conceivable relationship to me going back thousands of years... And a cousin deleting 37 names because he was angry that I posted maiden names of DEAD females...

Also, I NEVER asked, (nor gave permission) to be merged into the Giant tree...
(I DON'T care... and don't need to know if I am related to Jesus by a convoluted path of 200 marriages...)

One of their curators plagiarized my entire tree...
Another of your volunteer curators (who has a shill review on this site) has told me to "just deal with it" and that it's "all part of collaboration"...

The physical address listed for Geni is a Private P. O. Box, I know, I live not far from that address... also, beware of "shill" reviews on this site...

Thanks Geni.com, for ruining a 43 year long hobby...

These fools contacted me using my dead mother, but saying that she was about to be 85 years old!...
