Privacy

A very interesting post on privacy by Tim Bray. I particularly like this point:

Because you’re forgetting about the people who do need privacy. If only the “suspicious” stuff is made private, then our adversaries will assume that anything that’s private must be suspicious. That endangers our basic civilizational privacy privilege and isn’t a place we want to be.

He also has couple of talking points to use when discussing privacy with others, who are perhaps less concerned than you are.
