Why do so many YA people block their personal contacts, fans, questions, etc. from public view?

I click on some Profiles and many times there's nothing there. No bio, no contacts, no 360 profile or your questions showing. Even just a brief bio would be friendlier. Why are y'all blocking this information from public view? Do you not want Fans or Contacts? Or are you ashamed, have fears of reprisal, etc.?

Inquiring minds just want to know. Thanks for participating. ♥ ∞

Update:

EDIT: Absolutely, I agree everyone deserves privacy, but one can add innocuous information.

Example: "I am single, live in the (USA, UK, etc.) and enjoy walking on the beach." without revealing too much. Just seems friendlier, that's all. ♥ ∞
