“We’re not really talking about privacy actually. We’re talking about autonomy, about dignity, and about our liberty.
[So] when we say ‘privacy is dead’, what we’re hearing is our modern generation saying ‘liberty is dead’ … and I think it is important that we reject that notion.”
-Jacob Appelbaum(Image Credit: Wikipedia / Tobias Klenze)

“Encryption works. Properly implemented strong crypto systems are one of the few things that you can rely on.”

“Some privacy measures do require extraordinary technical competence; if you’re Edward Snowden, with the entire NSA bearing down on your communications, you will need to be a real expert to keep your information secure.
But the kind of privacy that makes you immune to mass surveillance and attacks-of-opportunity from voyeurs, identity thieves and other bad guys is attainable by anyone.”
-Cory Doctorow(Image Credit: Paul Mariel)
