Again, I don't think I said that publication revokes "all rights", but
it certainly opens the can of worms that wouldn't have been open had
you kept it to yourself.  So while it *exposes you*, it does not still
*deprive you of rights*.  That is what copyright is for:  to protect
you after you've exposed yourself.
