I don't even use my Garmin for local rides. If I did I would wait until I was a mile or more away from home before turning it on.
Why would someone want to stalk you just because you posted on Garmin Connect?

The assumption that there is some concern that people can locate you assumes that they want to locate you. It would appear to be a lot of bother just to find a virtual burglarly victim, when there are plently available in the actual physical world.

I can see an issue with real time tweets and facebook posts regarding your location, but I think worrying about a Garmin connect post is a little over the top.
