On Privacy

I came across this article about privacy in CodingHorror. I thought his argument that privacy is a 'human right' is spot on. It also brings to light the fact that privacy is wrongly associated with evil-doers and evil-things. In the past, I've definitely taken a "privacy doesn't exist" stance, but after this article, I feel my previous apathetic stance on the issue is not the way to go. This doesn't mean that I'll take down my Facebook, and demand Google to blacklist me from all their query results, but it does mean I will pause that extra half a second before agreeing to the next EULA I see.
