Exactly that.
IMO this is the reason they do look for this profiles.
Kind of a civil equivalent of "not obtained by illegal search - clearly seen in the open"
No forbidden questioning - publicly available knowledge.

That's the difference theory and practice:
It's "All you say might will be used against you."
