            The Internet supports several databases that  contain  basic
            information about users, such as e-mail addresses, telephone
            numbers, and  postal  addresses.   These  databases  can  be
            searched  to  get  information about particular individuals.
            Because they serve a function akin to  the  telephone  book,
            these databases are often referred to as "white pages."
