sneaking up to someones house and peeping in theier windows is creepy. or just camping out in front of their window from the street legally.

but that person had to put their info into the website, themselves, by choice, and then chose to let their privacy settings be such that others can view them.

if you pin your photo up to a cork board, don't be surprised if people see it

but the reverse is true too. if you look someone up, don't be surprised if they find out. really, i don't see how that would be a big deal.

with more and more illegitimate tracking being done, informing those being tracked seems a benefit, not a drawback.

there is a difference however between one institution tracking who all the people are that i am looking at, vs the person i am looking at finding out for themselves who is looking at them.
