He chose to tell his location, but he could also state something like "Earh" or "Gotham City" if he wanted to. Or his complete address for that matter. One could argue that this profile field is personal information though.
For other (custom) profile fields, you have a setting to either display it in topic view or not. When the nature of the profile field is too personal, you shouldn't display it in profile view, only in the memberlist/profile which are not available for guests.
That's entirely up to the board owner though.
