For the curious ones: these are the privacy settings (see top right of the page, next to the name) you find on http://my.secondlife.com/username
Note the top check box? "I want my profile to be available on the web." Just for fun I tried that on an alt, then tried to open the profile from a viewer using web profile. The result? A blank page with the text "This name is unavailable". Ergo, as long as I keep that "be available on the web" unchecked nobody using a viewer with web profiles inworld can view that alt's profile.
Good thing: if you have unchecked "show in search" in your profile before, the default new privacy features follow that (as they should): people trying to access your profile from out of world will get the "This name is unavailable" page.
