After Robert seized the throne, it was pretty much open season on Targaryen royalty. That was why Dany and her other brother had sail across the ocean and go into hiding and exile on another continent. Even then, Robert was still sending agents to hunt for them. 

But under the theory Jon was Ned's nephew and Ned felt compelled to protect him, particularly since Robert would have been especially incensed at this birth since he loved Jon's mother.
