In a world where justice is guaranteed, you’d be right. But we’re not living in a fairy tale, and keeping all your data public is not bringing us closer to that utopia, so what’s the point?

I live in a country where all data is public. We're good, thanks.

What the fuck does that even mean?

You want someone's personal number (americans, think social security number) - call the tax authority and ask for it. While at it, ask how much their declared income is and where they live.
All public information. And our society is most definitely a fairy tale utopia compared to the US.

I’m going to assume that that personal number is not used for identification then. But the information you name are not really relevant for the kind at stalking that OP describes. It’s not like the are no stalkers in Sweden.
