LJ is largely a public broadcast medium. If someone wants to say something privately, that's what email is for. If someone wants something they post kept quiet then the onus is on them to indicate such, and I know a number of people who do this on a regular basis. Relying on someone spotting the padlock and assuming that this means "don't tell anyone" is naive in the extreme on the part of the poster.
