That's a very good point, but I think it speaks more to the wizarding world's short-sightedness than in whether or not they SHOULD be keeping themselves secret. It just proves that secrets are harder to keep, and if even Muggle-loving wizards can't figure out how to work a blasted telephone (or even what to call it-- his enthusiasm is sweet but if Muggles were a fandom then Arthur Weasley is an awful fan-- shouldn't he know as much about it as possible? He works in the government office dedicated to Misuse of Muggle objects!) then they are so shamefully behind.
