Are people going to act all shocked that means it's indexable? gasp

I wonder - what could be some non-evil things to do with easy access to all of this information?
The thing that really bugs me about Google profiles is that they're directly connected to email addresses. I guess Google thinks their ability to deal with spam is good enough that putting millions of their user's email address publicly available isn't a concern.
A user can customize his or her profile URL with an email address. The settings page clearly states that the email address is publicly discoverable if the email address is used in the profile URL.
