> Why should I find you repulsive?

Me googling your shit might lead to your real name, your family photos etc

Just because it's all public doesn't mean you want the cashier from the supermarket following you around to your family picnic

or just because you like to let the sunlight in doesn't mean you want random pedestrians peering in through your windows..

I can't believe this needs to be spelled out here: "Public" life is compartmentalized.

This has never happened to me. Out of the space of “bad things that can happen to me” I don’t have time to worry about things with such a small probability of occurring.

Don't put on the Internet what you don't want found as it's always and forever public, I thought everyone knew the first rule.
