I've checked the armory page of one of my toons and don't see the time either in the web page or in the RSS feed. There is a date, but time is missing. W/o the time, the assumed stalking part in the article is useless. Also the fact that I might not have entries for a day or 2 doesn't mean I'm not playing, I might be farming mats or just wiping in a raid.

Blizzard Adds Timestamps To WoW Armory 318

Kharny writes "In a move that could cause serious privacy problems for players of World of Warcraft, Blizzard has added timestamps and an RSS feed to the game's online armory site. This new feature will mean that anyone can follow 'real-time' developments in a World of Warcraft character, which display the exact time and date, so that others can see that person's playing habits. Many players have already complained about the fact that there is no opt-out setting, and this opens very big possibilities for online stalking."
