The book "How to bbe invisible", by J.J. Luna[1] gives stories like this as one of the (many) reasons why privacy is important. The media jumps on stories like these and the victims are labelled in some way. When it later turns out that they are innocent, no amount of apologies will remove the label. For this reason (and many more), one should not make it easy for others (media or whoever) to find out things about you without your knowledge and consent, even for seemingly innocent purposes... Having said that, I'm not nearly as anonymous as I'd like to be. In fact, its pretty easy to find out who I am and lots about me.
