Glenn Greenwald: Why privacy matters

Glenn Greenwald was one of the first reporters to see - and write about - the Edward Snowden files, with their revelations about the United States' extensive surveillance of private citizens. In this searing talk, Greenwald makes the case for why you need to care about privacy, even if you’re “not doing anything you need to hide."

[@HectorLopez-do3st]

It didn't change my mind at all. I still don't care about my privacy. I don't have anything to hide

[@AhmadUibai]

Before watching the video, I was one of those people who felt that “only if you do bad acts do you need privacy”. However, after the multiple valid points the speaker has brought up, I can safely say that privacy is truly needed and that today’s society does lack the minimal amount of privacy that every human should be entitled to; I agree with the speaker. Every single person deserves to have a certain amount of privacy in their lives. As the speaker said, “all of us have things to hide”. These things need not be bad things. It could simply be things that we are not comfortable sharing with others. However, with the internet, nothing is private. Using certain tools, anybody can find out anything about anybody. As long as that person uses the internet in some way, he will have released some information about him. I feel that this is both good and bad. It is bad as it violates the basic amount of privacy one should have but at the same time it is good as it keeps ‘bad’ people in check. Thus, the status quo of privacy on the internet can and should be improved on. 200 words, Ahmad Uibaidillah, CMM/TB04

Ahmad, privacy is the base condition for freedom. It seems freedom doesn't matter to you. A state should not collect private details about non-suspects. That's what we're talking about. It's not about fighting crime.

Now imagine someone that doesnt know this guy or his sinister past ( the name is papandreou btw) taking what he said as facts or as serious. ( i would say roughly 5/10 of their videos are linked to profit, macro-economics,monetary systems or someting else with an economic approach)

When we are born and get older we started to wear clothes,we go to school and do almost everything which other humans are doing.Why do you think we all behave the same way as other people's do...mostly because we are born in a society a place for educated peoples so in a way we are already born in a artificial social prison we already have all the given options/choices we need to make with our life.

[@MeLexdy]

Summit Gomez " and do almost everything which other humans" Primates and man learn and behave by mimicking others. Nothing is already decided before we actually do it. We make "us" ,we are trully free if we choose to. Although society throught conformity (using methods like shaming and others) instills priotities or influences, we still can against it and face the consequences to certain degree. Now in a " jail" situation the idea is that someone took care of that escape exit. You cant go anywhere. The sun rises and sets by his rules.

+saladbarthief -- "A government isn't going to be malicious with your email, spread rumors about you, and use your email to talk to your friends." You don't know this for a fact. If the govt. wants to intimidate someone, or frame someone, or paint them in a bad light, they will do so. Just look at what the IRS did to conservatives political advocacy groups applying for 501(c)(3) status. They poked into aspects of the groups that had nothing to do with the stated goals of those groups.

[@kalmaved]

*+saladbarthief* The government consists of _people_ (_individuals_). Nuff said.

[@IMZusic]

I agree with what Glenn Greenwald has said about privacy being important, and is not just for the “bad people”. In the past, I used to think that people should not be afraid of others invading their privacy if they did not have a guilty conscience. However, what I’ve really learnt is that everyone actually needs privacy in their lives. An example of people needing privacy is when they lock the door when they are in the bathroom. Almost everyone who goes to the bathroom lock the door, but is there anything wrong that? Most the time, the answer is no. The reason why people lock the door is because they do not want others to see the things they are doing, even though those things are not wrong. As human beings, it is a natural instinct to crave for privacy. Whenever we know we are being watched by someone, we are at our best behaviour, trying to paint the image that we are “good”. However, if we are constantly watched, this result in the lack of freedom as “mass surveillance creates a prison in the mind”. Thus, privacy is really important because it is the roots of our freedom. (200 words, Isaac Mak, CMM/TB02)

[@VELOSMUSIC]

I absolutely Loved this, thank you.

[@rushdiishmail9686]

Great talk. I can really relate to this...Thank you Glenn Greenwald. Privacy in today’s society is very important. Privacy invasions/breaches can place a limit on your “personal power”. The more someone knows about us, the more power they can have over us. Privacy is about respecting individuals. If a person has a reasonable desire to keep something private, it is disrespectful to ignore that person’s wishes without a compelling reason (just cause) to do so. Privacy enables people to manage their reputations. How we are judged by others affects our opportunities, friendships, and overall well - being. People establish boundaries from others in society. These boundaries are both physical and informational. We need places of solitude to retreat to, places where we are free of the gaze of others in order to relax and feel at ease. Breaches of these boundaries can create awkward social situations and damage our relationships. In relationships, whether personal, professional, governmental or commercial, we depend upon trusting the other party. Privacy has a big influence in “controlling over one’s life”. Personal data is essential to so many decisions made about us, from whether we get a loan, a license or a job to our personal and professional reputations. Privacy is key to freedom of thought / speech. A watchful eye over everything we do, read or watch can chill us from exploring ideas outside the mainstream. Privacy helps protect our ability to associate with other people and engage in political activity. A key component of freedom of political association is the ability to do so with privacy if one chooses. Privacy provides us with the ability to change and have second chances. Many people are not static; they change and grow throughout their lives. There is a great value in the ability to have a second chance, to be able to move forward beyond a mistake, to be able to reinvent oneself. Privacy nurtures this ability. The most important reason why privacy matters is not having to explain or justify oneself. We may do a lot of things which, if judged from afar by others lacking complete knowledge or understanding , may seem odd or embarrassing or worse and can have a damaging effect on one’s health. It can be a heavy burden if we constantly have to wonder how everything we do will be perceived by others and have to be at the ready to explain…

[@ASkepticalHumanOnYouTube]

"mass surveillance creates a prison in the mind"

[@jagabibibi]

I agree with what Glenn Greenwald had said in this video. It is wrong to say that you have a guilty conscience just because you want privacy. Privacy is a right that everyone deserves since day one and something that everyone should respect. Glenn Greenwald’s words about surveillance being “prison in the mind” is true. Surveillance will only take away the freedom of the citizens and nothing else. The government should not take advantage of what they have to spy on people without them knowing and come up with a ridiculous theory that the people have done something shameful if they desire privacy. People are only “obedient and compliant” because the surveillance will instil fear in the people, causing them to be more cautious of their own behaviour. It is scary to think that you are constantly being watched because there will not be any way to express your own creativity and freedom. 153 words, Val, TB03/CMM

[@mking22wvu]

That last answer was fantastic!

[@andersstook3273]

Every student around the world should see this. I hate when i hear people say ; it´s ok with me i have nothing to hide.

[@Sujufan2010]

Glenn Greenwald brings up several good points in this speech. Personally, the idea that the government may be watching your every step mortifies me. The fact that they don’t even trust their inhabitants enough, that they have to be on constant look out for you. Glenn also brings up the good point that everyone, even if they aren’t a bad person, have things to hide. For example, would you be willing to be under surveillance if you were on the toilet? What about when you’re having an intimate time with your spouse? Granted, a rare minority may enjoy this, but majority of us don’t. Which is why it was surprising to me when Glenn brought up the idea that people actually say that they don’t have anything to hide. As he said, if you had nothing to hide, you would be able to share your personal thoughts, and your deepest secrets with the first stranger you meet. As such, I agree immensely with Glenn in his views in this speech. 170 words, Renee Lim, CMM TB04

[@jiahui9555]

I agree with Glenn Greenwald view on the importance of privacy. That the world has become an “unprecedented zone of mass indiscriminate surveillance”. Mass surveillance in itself is something that everyone should be weary of. As humans, we all crave privacy. Hence the phrase “only people who are engaged in bad acts have a reason to want to hide something”. I do not agree with this statement. The word “bad” is used very loosely in this phrase as is isn’t defined what is actually considered bad. Additionally, everyone, even someone “good” has the right to privacy. Like Glenn Greenwald said, when someone knows that they are being surveyed, it forces them to become conformed and abide by the rules because they know they have no other choice. Hence, this shows that humans in itself, can never behave like they truly want to when they know they are being watched. Thus this proves that as people, we all need and crave privacy. 164 words, Jia Hui, CMM/TB02

[@SabbathSOG]

[@michaelinzo]

Awesome last quotes !

[@kimj5037]

"Mass surveillance creates a prison in the mind that is a much more subtle, and more effective, means of fostering compliance with social norms, or with social orthodoxy, than brute force could ever be". Until Covid, I was one of those people who wasn't really that worried about mass surveillance. I used to think, "I'm okay, I've got nothing to hide". I get it now.

Couldnt agree more. As a person who does music I still believe we deserve privacy. After a while Its a peace of mind thing. It can cause physiological matters.

[@LilRicoGz]

+Rico Gz Right. Sometimes ppl come in at wrong times and then release unauthorized private info about them. Which could put them in a False light. Hacking can also be a form.

[@LilRicoGz]

Understood. Its Unsettling to even think about how many are/were invading privacy and where its being Leaked to w/o consent.

[@Podeon2013]

Agree. UNRESTRICTED SURVEILLANCE MEANS THE STAGNATION OF ALL FUTURE PROGRESS. The biggest problem with surveillance is that it will inhibit any future change for the better. Most of the great revolutionaries and people who made a change for the better would now be called terrorists. If 500 years ago the World had had the kind of surveillance we have today we would still have the Inquisition as a form of law and the people in power would be the same.

[@safetyfirst9502]

KZbin suggests material based on my viewing history , That's not privacy

[@elizabethm151]

I agree with Glenn Greenwald. I remember this thing I saw online once, that certain stores in malls had mirrors in their changing rooms that were actually two-way mirrors, so as to prevent or catch people who attempt to steal. I definitely found this unnerving and to this day, I still am paranoid and make it a point to check whether it truly is a mirror, by using a finger to touch the glass in which I am supposed to observe a gap between the finger and the mirror. Now, I do understand the security risks that the companies face, but like Greenwald mentioned, aren’t they just exploiting our privacy by assuming everyone is a bad person? Wouldn’t we in return feel at risk, since literally anyone could be viewing us? We, in return, would feel the risk in our security. Someone could use the footage of our most private moments to blackmail us and in this case, I think we can assume that the person who holds the authority to view the surveillance could be a bad person, since we, the public are assumed to be bad. 188 words, Elizabeth Mascrinhas, CMM/TB03
