"...I look forward to everyone's information being made public in the future..."
One of the problems is that everyone's information will not become public, and that asymmetry MIGHT lead to social power imbalances. A good "for instance" is that using some of the techniques outlined in the article, a person who might have had the discipline to never start using any social media sites would be part of that 5% of people that you could not identify.
Every technique will have holes like that, and it will give some people a level of privacy that others don't have. And that's where even mundane things you would normally not even think about, begin to get affected by the social power imbalances. For instance, a company receives 2 resumes, one from me, one from someone who is "digitally invisible". (For lack of a better term.) The background check they run on me would be a whole lot more detailed than the check they run on the "digitally invisible" person. I guess the answer to that is for me to just not be a douche on the internet.
At any rate, I don't know if I'm being clear, but I hope you can see where techniques like this could expose one person, but not another. It's not really "fair" in the way you described unless everyone is exposed.
