The reason it's increasingly surprising to you is that its not a principle that's as fundamentally held as you believed it to be. *shrug*
I understand that some people feel that way--and that's fine. But like it or not, the internet is changing how society views privacy and anonymity. And there never was a "life, liberty, and the pursuit of anonymity" clause.
