I think there is a possible future where maybe we do just take a hard turn away from the Internet and we do start valuing our privacy again.
If we don't act now to safeguard our privacy, we could all become victims of identity theft.
We are losing privacy at an alarming rate - we have none left.
The people who are worried about privacy have a legitimate worry. But we live in a complex world where you're going to have to have a level of security greater than you did back in the olden days, if you will. And our laws and our interpretation of the Constitution, I think, have to change.

We have to examine very carefully any privacy-reducing technology.
