I feel this is similar to Firesheep[1], a browser extension from a decade ago that put cookie session hijacking into the hands of everyday users and became wildly popular until its removal. Pre-Snowden it pushed various major sites to implement HTTPS encryption, including Facebook[2].

Granted there the solution was a rather simple one but I feel it's at least worthwhile for more to be conscientious of singular identities online and what info is disclosed publicly with them.
