Only a stupid vendor would keep customer addresses on hand after packaging. Not only because it's now useless clutter, but for the reasons Meme pointed out above. It can only hurt a vendor to save addresses.We've had one or two incidences where vendors have blackmailed a customer regarding their address. That vendor thought he was pretty clever by keeping addresses on hand, but as you can see, he was actually being woefully naive and risking his own safety by saving them.And if you do need to keep addresses around for some reason e.g. a scammer black list, then you can just use address hashing so you don't actually have the address itself. More on this later this week.
