It's not a question of should or not. People just willingly give up privacy for convenience. For example merely using a phone (not to mention a smartphone with their location awareness capabilities, or a plain mobile phone with their multilateration, any one that works at all, even a landline if you use it at that very moment) is a breach of privacy. But you need it to function in a modern society. You can avoid such things by taking some extra steps but each of those steps takes progressively more effort and bites a huge chuck of the aforementioned convenience, not only for you but also for the other side of your social interaction. The whole original topic is more about prevalent abuses of authority than privacy itself, though. And that's a different thing because protecting your privacy from authorized and/or dedicated actors is always quite difficult, if possible at all, even with a proper privacy "hygiene", and needs a totally different approach. |
