RedHat, why marking bugs as private - and denying access to 99.5% of its user base. On several occasions, BZ that I've opened became private - I never asked for it.

In order for me to get the content of marked private BZ, i have to open a support case with RH and waste my time and support time on something as stupid as this.

Maybe its easier to make a note on BugZilla and just say "PLEASE DONT POST PRIVATE/CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION - THIS IS A PUBLICLY VIEWED RESOURCE"? or ask a bug reporter to make this bug private from the get go?

*If you really want to make a bug private - open a redhat support case and not public BZ.*


If you happen to agree with what is mentioned here,  please voice your opinion - maybe someone from RedHat reads it and miracle happens.

PS: Most of BZ referenced in release notes are marked private with a faint description of what could have been fixed - however since description is very brief, it makes me request BZ details over and over again.
