For many people, the benefit of being able to look up information is greater than the cost of letting other people have this ability - most people still won't care too much even if they know their data is published in this way. (For example, most people were willing to have their home telephone number published in a phone book) For some people, the cost of letting other people look up your information is overwhelmingly huge - this is why privacy should be regulated. We don't really "all suffer" the same - some people suffer disproportionately (stalking, harassment, abuse). Publishing the data as a torrent is unlikely to change people's opinion, but will almost certainly harm people. Don't take this approach.
