Think of it this way. The fine for littering is typically a grand. You have put out on the net the location of your littering. It's like saying "come and get me!"
Now I suppose we can say we left something behind, kind of like a "lost and found" issue. Certainly items left in a water proof container should not be considered the same as a empty cigarette pack.

I think this is an issue, so I think it is important ethically that the person who places the stash should be responsible for it and be prepared to remove it, when and if this becomes necessary.
