While there is a case to be made for security and privacy, there is an equally valid case for transparency and public connectedness. In the developing cyber-culture, celebrity and power are linked to availability and if you are set to "private" to "protect" your identity - you effectively do not exist.  The interface between public and private is a new frontier.

From Flora Thompson's "Lark Rise to Candleford" "A little later, remembering man's earthly origin, "dust thou art and to dust thou shalt return," they liked to fancy themselves bubbles of earth. When alone in the fields, with no one to see them, they would hop, skip, and jump, touching the ground as lightly as possible... and crying, "We are bubbles of earth! Bubbles of earth! Bubbles of Earth!" "
