Oh yeah, I've definitely seen this issue discussed on LJ a lot. Frankly, as much as people wish to assume privacy, I think the system is breaking down.
For example, there's a group known as Linkspam which is dedicated to gathering links about social issues, and unlike Metafandom, it's their stated policy that they don't need permission to link. The more such groups there are, the more aware people become that they may face publicity when posting in public.
