Those who matter do. A well written article or two on such things
would undoubtedly be useful on occasion to point to, and in this
(type of) thread in particular, it seems to me that referring to such
an article early on may be about the most effect response to the
initial post possible.

Thank you so much for the awesome work. I'm looking forward to
the well written editorial :)

As to privacy 'for the rest of us' - "you don't have to be doing anything
wrong to want your privacy" - admittedly an 'expectation' of privacy
may be unreasonable in the face of an angry jerk, but that in no way
takes away from our 'right' to privacy.

It is a sad state of humans where 'average humans' violate the
privacy of others - it's bad enough that three letter agencies/
governments work so diligently to violate our privacy.

Regards,
Zenaan
