MikeFerrara:The only thing that PADI or any dive shop could have done would have been to insist that the FBI get a court order which they were willing to do and actually did in at least one case.
The fun part was that in the case of most shops the only way to produce a list of divers who didn't complete training is a manual page by page search of records which was very time consuming. It's not like they pay you for all those hours you spend doing it either.
You could give it to them on disk in MAC format, that would slow them down.
The thing I don't think they should have is the phone records, medical history and credit card invoices and things like that, which I'm sure they can get with a few clicks if they want.
I don't think that they should have our medical waiver data either, but unless I'm mistaken PADI doesn't see those.
