Personal information becomes public when it's not properly secured and then broadcasted out into the world... even if the user doesn't understand it's happening.

I agree that it's not a perfect analogy, but it is quite a bit closer than being robbed, as the the OP suggested.

So if a song is played in public, it becomes public?

Are you arguing that I shouldn't be able to record audio on the street if someone is playing a song in the background?
