From what I can read you've never been stalked by a creep…

  I think the point of the comment is that by playing the game, you broadcast pretty sensitive data. It would be like if you were constantly uploading geotagged photos for everyone to see, and being surprised about people learning your location. I really hate that this sounds like 'victim blaming', but if a threat vector for you is being stalked by a creep, and you don't want people to know where you are, then maybe voluntarily constantly broadcasting your location to the public isn't the best idea?

    What if you innocently play the game and THEN get a stalker, who uses game data to identify work, home, etc. If anybody can get a stalker, then nobody is safe playing this game... ?

      That's a matter for police then. Any thing involving location data and semi-public information could land you a stalker. Anything can happen to anyone. Whether to care about it at all, involve the state or solve it solve it yourself depends on probabilities involved.

        So privacy doesn't matter? And the police are the right solution for all invasions of your privacy? Do I get the local police involved if remote attackers use personal information to drain my bank account? "The police" (local?) are a solution for certain kinds of problems, but that's it. Consider restraining orders and all the victims these orders failed to protect. Far more effective is a large dog or other adult humans.
