Your sentiment is clearly well-meant, but that course of action just as well could result in a disaster as it could a happy outcome.
From a data aggregation perspective, it is (unpleasantly) fascinating to me that a programming choice in an ostensibly opt-in social networking database has resulted in a public bulletin-board discussion of what could be perhaps the most private part of a person's life.
Examples like this are the perfect answer to the dangerous nonsense propounded by the "anonymity needs to go away" crowd. Not everyone's life is or should be an open book.
