This is an interesting approach, but I don't think it works as well as you think it will. So if I put up a "I hate Barney Frank" site, because I disagree with the politics and perspectives of Barney Frank, wouldn't Barney Frank have the ability to censor me for violation of his privacy? Especially if I was reporting on the daily activities of Barney Frank? Posting pictures of Barney Frank?

Seems like a dead end.

I think different rules would apply for Barney Frank than for, say, Flynn23, because Frank is a public personality and a Congressman. If you posted a stalker page about someone who wasn't a public personality that might get you in trouble, reasonably. Daniel Solove was written about this stuff...

But that's my point. In the future, we're all "public personalities", since everything we do is shared more and more with more and more transparency.
