That raises an interesting question: Is looking at published and publicly available information an invasion of privacy? If it were intended to be private, would it be placed on the internet by authorities in a searchable format, not requiring any special approval to access -- accounts, passwords, etc?

This type of information is available on all of us, if we have breached the law in any way. When you cross the line, break the law, and are caught (even for a traffic ticket), then you leave your privacy behind cross into the public realm, because it requires a public resources (that we all pay for) and a public response.

Also, keep in mind that when she wanted to find out how to do an end run around public assistance rules (commit welfare fraud), get advice on a shoplifting charge, and find out how to fraudulently register puppies with the AKC, SHE is the one that posted those things on public forums for ALL the world to see.

So is it nosy? Yes. An invasion of privacy? No.
