Wait a minute

So there was a recent AOL scandal in which a bunch of search strings were released, causing lots of personal information out there. I think the issue is that our attitude about the Internet makes no sense. Where do people feel justified in saying that their use of something public, such as the Internet, should be kept confidential? You’re using someone else’s site, so where do you get off in thinking that you can tell them what to do with their record of your activity?
