PSA: The Amazon wishlist doxing threat is much greater and more immediate than folks might realize. Attack works like this:

Stalker who wants your address opens an Amazon seller account and lists themselves as a third party seller for any item on your public wishlist. Then, they order the item from themselves as a gift for you. Bam, they have your address.

In particular, attack does not depend on an existing third party seller having poor PII handling hygiene, like the articles have implied.

@dalias I don’t understand why anyone would ever want a public wishlist, even disregarding stalkers and the like. Seriously, how is it of public interest that you’d like a new bathrobe?
@jpkolsen @dalias It's a form of mutual aid. As a disabled person I cannot work and can barely leave the house. it's a pretty bleak existence. A wishlist lets people who care about me buy things for me and my cat that we need or that will lift our spirits. Not everything is a grift.
@Rhube @dalias I’m sorry to hear about your situation. I wasn’t assuming a grift - I genuinely had no idea why anyone would want to publicize what I assumed were birthday wishes etc.
