GB,
You know the old saying...."Good fences make for good neighbors."

I personally don't like "privacy" fences either. They just make me wonder what people are doing on the other side of the fence that they don't want me to see.

I'm an open view person myself, I'm not worried about what the neighbors might see me do, they might learn something.
But, I do like my chain link fence just to keep the neighbors dog out of my yard!
