Thanks. This made me laugh. Before facebook, there was the phonebook. It amuses me to think of a debate about pouring over a therapist's listing in the phonebook and being called a stalker. "My client has been reading the phonebook about me! How dare they invade my public posting!" I know that's not exactly the same, and that people can go farther with it, but still. It's all intended to be public. I see the big exception being those who set up an account in a different name (say, first and middle or maiden) and lock it all down. But curiosity on either side does not seem creepy or concerning to me.
