Everybody can download GPS points for an area, which will include your points, but when they do so they (a) have no idea which user uploaded those points and (b) don't get any timestamp information for the points at all. In addition your points will be mixed up with those of anybody else that has uploaded traces in that area (whether public or not).
In sparsely-traveled areas the set of points has almost as much information as the ordered trace. I can see the value, though, so perhaps private traces should just be labeled as semi-private or semi-public.
