Many of us don't fully grasp the importance of privacy for a free society.

We allow total invasion of our privacy, making a bet that we and those in power will stay on good terms, so this data will never be used against us.

But as Snowden said, regimes come and go, social norms change, but that data is forever.

Privacy is not a tool for criminals, as many would have you believe. It's essential for regular people, to allow them to dissent, have independent thoughts, hold people accountable without fearing retribution.
