With the high profile cases where administrators have been stalked in real life as a result of personally identifiable information they post on the wiki, I feel it's mad for people to post their real names, let alone photos of themselves, names of loved ones or photos of loved ones. Sure, if you stay out of trouble on the wiki the chances of such a thing happening is pretty slight, but there's plenty of nutcases out there to go around.
I don't know Lara and I haven't followed this thread, but I would speculate that her attitude might be similar to mine: I refuse to grant those nutcases that much power. Some tiny number of them exist, who have perpetrated some tiny number of (albeit high-profile) atrocities, and now suddenly nobody else on the entire planet can post pictures of their children to the net? No; I defy that lopsided capitulation.
