People are stupid. Why would you share anything extremely personal with anyone other than a spouse? I wouldn't even trust my own siblings with my information. On top of that, assuming people are stupid, and they do stupid things, why would they not change their passwords after a breakup with that once significant other or some other kind of information leak? I'm a firm believer in survival of the fittest, and if people are humiliated online, they are that much less likely to be leading a company. Lots of smart people should be leading the companies of America and supporting the US economy. It works out better for everyone in the end.

Anything extremely personal should be very carefully safeguarded. Such sensitive information should never be sent over a network or duplicated in any way, and stored in a place that does not have frequent Internet connection. Ideally, any device containing highly sensitive information will be locked up, and the information there never copied and entrusted to another.
