I don't think it's privacy that's the issue here, rather the degree of privacy. By live blogging the ordeal, it unwittingly went from an argument in a Burger King in front of a few people to an argument broadcast on the Internet to thousands. I don't think it's illegal and I probably wouldn't fault most people for doing this, but Boyle's a trained journalist. He should know the ethics of communication inside and out.
