It's public so you should have no problem seeing it.
If you mouse over the image posted in the entry, you'll see the link is pointing towards my old name (xnera). But when you click on the image, it brings up the image in the page with redirected name (althea-valara). So yes, it will redirect, but if you don't want people discovering your old name, you'll have to manually update links. Which is a pain, but I don't know any other way to do it.
