I wouldn't worry. I put in my zip code and then zoomed in to see how close the pin was to my actual location. It was all the way over by my cousin's house. Zip codes cover too large an area to find someone with it.
Now that I've said that, is there any way you can move your pin, or place a pin exactly where you want it, instead of having to let the thing place it for you using your zip code? I'd like to do that. That map is awesome. It actually shows my driveway! I could stick the pin right on top of the room where I'm sitting right now. Frankly, I don't care if some Downer finds me. It would just be a pleasant surprise.
