Comment:

 Hi henrywright. Thanks for the report.

 I think this ticket hinges on a misunderstanding about what "visibility"
 means in this context. BP interprets "visibility" as referring to the
 *values* of the fields, as filled in by the user. In other words, if you
 have a field "Phone Number", and the user 'boone' selects the visibility
 level Logged In Users, then only logged-in users will be able to see
 boone's phone number. In contrast, BP is set up so that all Base fields
 are available to users during registration - Visibility does not affect
 this.

 If you have fields that you don't want to appear during registration,
 please put them in a group other than Base.
