What you did is no different than what Lulzsec has been doing this past 50 days - blatantly disregarding the safety of individuals in order to make a point, arrogantly.

You say that like it's a bad thing

Fool.  You see no further than the immediate.  LulzSec did nothing more than create an excuse for the authorities to try and clamp down on the Internet and/or bit coin (how they were seen to be funded).  For an added bonus, they mixed in immigration and drug issues into their troll.  Now the average Joe will welcome the "protection" of our brand new, locked down, internet -- free from the dangers inherent to anonymity.  Technology may not exist now, or ever, but they, and the momentum they have created, will certainly create the demand.

Similarly, your actions reflect on bitcoin itself in the public eye, and you don't seem to care.  I wonder why.
