Privacy is like wearing an air-pollution mask in China. It might be a wise thing to do right now, but this is not something we want to be doing forever. This is only meant to be temporary.

When people talk about privacy, they don't think about it as a tool. They don't talk about it like people in China talk about an air-pollution mask. Do you often hear about how air-pollution masks should be a right and why we need them to preserve a freer future?



There will never be a utopia so flawless that freedom becomes entirely unnecessary.
