Cyan Wind,  I get your point but do think it is easier to just leave the person on the list as is with a note as to when the profile went private (and thus from that date the points are no longer updated).

My logic is as follows:

- it is easy to see the points from a profile public - so anyone can help us maintain these lists

- should a once public profile turn private - you will not see their points - so it should be rather simple since their is nothing to update.

- if the profile is on the list - it will remind us to check it now and then and catch them should they go public again.

You do bring up a good question - should someone want to be removed from any or all lists

- who do they contact? I would say leave a comment here.

- how should we record those that have made such a request? Other than creating another list of users (without links to KA) I can't think of another way to do so.

And in regards to privacy:  I don't think adding a person to any of our lists violates their "rights", if that is the case then we should remove everyone that we don't have direct permission from.
