I think aaronchall meant that if you tell someone else about it, it's not private anymore. Kinda like the old saying about the only way three people can keep a secret is if two of 'em are dead.

It's still private, it is no longer a secret. It hovers somewhere between being a 'public secret' or 'public knowledge' without the general public being aware of it because it hasn't been published yet. And in that sense the real world is very much different than the web, there everything that is not explicitly protected is published.
