If you were in the parking lot of a grocery store and some stranger were to get out their camera and start shooting photos of your license plate and your face, and explained that they were taking photos for identification for the future potential of you vandalizing their vehicle, you probably wouldn't be too happy either.
But there's nothing I could do about it, and rightly so.
There is plenty of rude behavior that remains legal. I'd like to keep it that way, personally.

Now all of a sudden organized groups of 18 are announcing their plans on the Internet. This changes the game. The DWA wants to protect their land and water rights and escalates their efforts relative to the climber escalation.
So it goes.

Completely agree. Given the recent internet traffic about the route and outings it was bound to happen.

People may also want to refrain from posting prospective trips with dates certain. From the early posts, it appears that someone is monitoring people's plans and intercepting accordingly. Having said that, Snow Creek has a pretty limited season so it's probably safe to assume they'll probably be out there every weekend for the next month or so.

Saturday morning at 8 a.m., I plan to hike onto DWA property and poop in the watershed.
Anyone else want to join me?
