Maybe I'm very naive but I have a hard time imagining one would get into trouble by browsing such a list now that it's in the open. Thousands of people are browsing this list right now....

It's half principle and I think that I would worry about things like that. I have no idea what kind of monitoring tools and methods the FBI have and I don't want any attention because someone linked a load of passwords to ycombinator and I went to it expecting a fairly inocent article :)
