There is a school of thought that you don't add another s to a possessive name that already ends in s. As in Jones' vs Jones's.

They are wrong for many reasons, but here's another. If you ever write such a name and it finds its way into a redacted document, the trailing apostrophe gives away the last letter of the name.
