This is very akin the dilemma of getting yourself a very secretive and secured email: all the privacy and security stops the matter the moment you send an email to somebody with a GMail; the entire thread is visible below (through a chain of quote blocks) and it's game over.
If you want true privacy, make a centralized self-hosted service where people have to be allowed in explicitly.
Don't see what the problem is in the OP, they are kind of expressing displeasure that a service that technically can be scraped by almost anyone is... you know, scheduled for scraping and exposed. And at the same time nobody actually bothered to prevent the scenario from happening.
And this also looks very much like the early internet: people didn't think others are malicious so security was minimal.
This kind of naivete really needs to get clubbed to death. We can't afford being as naive nowadays.
