This is a relevant thought. The nature of what is public and what is assumed to be less public is evolving -- for example in higher education it is common to have publicly available (can be reached by link) resources/curriculum/scholarship websites that are unlisted, not indexed by Google. So public, but less so. I think some hobbyists are intentional about it. Others may not understand the nuances of how things are found on the interwebs.
I agree, with the caveat that digital literacy varies a great deal across hobbyists and BF is no exception. In the 90's when the web was pretty young, lots of people made websites to share family/baby pictures without any sort of pw or login, and those same people might not understand how that's not a good idea today.
So a public/private dichotomy has limited mileage IMO.
