I'm afraid it's much worse than that, even. You don't even need to use the internet.
You can be walking down the street and an hour later, unbeknownst to you, your picture makes it to the front page of reddit. It could be that you were skipping work that day, and told your boss you were sick. Or perhaps picking up an engagement ring.
This sort of free-for-all will only get worse as technologies like Google Glass and the so-called "Internet of Things" become mainstream. Your life is now a commodity for internet voyeurism and, possibly, witch hunts.
The tech is ripe for turning citizens against citizens. "Turn in your neighbor for un-American activities" sort of stuff.
