Nope, like public comments, linked to posts.
I really can't consider them private, regardless of how everyone has used them. There's a public interface for them in the PHP code which doesn't have a permissions layer on it.
It may be obscure, you may not know the address and syntax... but comments never have been private.
The only piece of data on the site that is private, is the one that says private in the title... private messages.
And my trolling is in suggesting I'm going to nuke rep, I'm not. I really thought you all knew me well enough to know that.
But I'm not trolling when I say that tags, comments, these things were never supposed to be, or should have been presumed to be, private... hence my repeating that over the years.
