I want my government to do something about my privacy - I don't want to just do it on my own.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Privacy is not something that I'm merely entitled to, it's an absolute prerequisite.
Governmental surveillance is not about the government collecting the information you're sharing publicly and willingly; it's about collecting the information you don't think you're sharing at all, such as the online searches you do on search engines... or private emails or text messages... or the location of your mobile phone at any time.
How to strike the right balance between our privacy and our expectation that the state will protect us and facilitate our freedom is one of the most difficult challenges facing us all.
Despite being in public life, I value my own privacy immensely and would be as concerned as anyone else if I thought my mobile phone records could be easily available to officials across government.
You want your privacy as a human being.
I need privacy. I would think that because what I do makes a lot of people happy that I might deserve a little bit of respect in return. Instead, the papers try to drag me off my pedestal.
I don't always want my opinion known. What little privacy I have left I'd like to maintain.
You already have zero privacy - get over it.
I am a deeply committed conservative who wants to keep maximal privacy for every U.S. citizen.
Relying on the government to protect your privacy is like asking a peeping tom to install your window blinds.
