Privacy is one concern, yes. But you've missed my central point, so I'll amend your statement:
"If you want to retain your copyrights, then don't post anything on an open website." I disagree with that in principle, and so do these specific cases. I see a major philosophical difference between "we'll take it down if you ask us to", by which time the damage is done, and "you need my permission before you can have it in the first place", which is how copyright in fact works.
