Internet fame is like "rock star" fame but without the rock star security entourage.
People begin to treat folks like Arrington as an object and not a person but by the nature of the job they do they are inevitably in closer contact with those that would treat them that way - than (say) a Hollywood film star.
I suspect that we will see more such incidents affecting key technology writers and pundits - fame is dangerous in so may ways.
