How would you react or respond to another lifestyle couple if you found out after the fact they showed your profile and pictures to an inquisitive vanilla couple?

Do you email the lifestyle couple back you have been corresponding with (have not met yet), it would have been nice to ask us first if we wished our profile and pictures to be seen by an "outsider". Do you explain discretion yet again even though it is stressed in emails and in the profile? Or be flattered? Do you decide to go ahead and see the lifestyle couple or break it off?
Curious to hear what others would do in this situation?
I would bring it up with that couple and let them know how you feel about the event. I seriously think it is wrong to do and would NEVER break someones discreation that way! So just talk to them and tell them what they did was not appreciated and if you wanted everyone to see your profile you would have it posted on a billboard!
In other swinger sites we have shared profiles with others we have met, but never without discussing it with all parties involved first. We hope no one has done any 3rd party introductions of us to anyone. Frankly, after we moved in together, just about everyone we knew had seen us in compromising positions, thanks to our exes. We don't mind others seeing us in our altogether, just we like to know about it first;)
Sharing another persons inimate foto's without their permission is almost as rude as you can get in the lifestyle. If you are going to engage in foto sessions with other persons you you lay down the use rules before hand. If someone betrays those rules you should re-evaluate whether they are the type of people yopu want to continue a relationship with
If someone we knew showed our pics to vanilla people we would be upset. We would strongly, politely request they not do that again and also make sure we never sent them any more pictures.

Slightly different subject, but something we ran into recently:
I must also say that I find it very tasteless to have people in the lifestyle email pics to others and make fun of them. Not everyone comes in the same shape and sizes and looks attractive, so please be considerate. I know we all get pics sometimes that we wish we had not opened, but it's no reason to forward them to others and make fun. We only meet one couple that did this (that we know of) and we continue to hope they never decide to forward and make fun of our pics.
Simply, I'd be upset.

Having said that - the realities of the net are that everyone is not exactly as they portray themselves, and that being the case, everyone doesn't necessarily play by the same rules most people do.

Therefore, if I don't really know you or trust you, you can see my pictures with my identity hidden. Once I know you, I'll show you everything with the assumption that I also know how you'll utilize those pictures.

I don't necessarily like reality always, but I do try to understand it.
Thanks for the replies and insight guys. Now tell me, have you ever had good friends over, that know of your activities, and browsed the profiles on a Lifestyle site??
