2, logs of my ingame activities give a pretty good idea of what I was doing when I was doing it. Which while yes, the probability of this being put to any nefarious use is slim, nonetheless, it really is none of anyone else's business.

3, I assume a lot of people here played MMORPGs in the past, and probably a lot played XI too. And most likely everyone knows someone who had their account hacked into. While most of these hackings were probably "hackings" where relevant info was voluntarily shared, or social engineering in general, and I do have a token, I have no interest in making myself a target. What happens the day they introduce more achievements dealing with loot/gil etc? (if they do of course)
1.) It's SE choice as the developer; just as it's your choice to sign up for the game or sign up for facebook.
2.) The achievements on the lodestone are NOT updated immediately. They can take hours or days to show up.
3.) I don't even.. how would someone seeing your achievements compromise your account in anyway? Ah he has 10 level 50's... his account much be 10level50s@email.com and password 108485810gil

No reason to hide irrelevant information really.
