I found this ted talk on privacy enlightening: https://www.ted.com/talks/glenn_greenwald_why_privacy_matters/up-next https://www.ted.com/talks/glenn_greenwald_why_privacy_matter... If someone placed a surveillance camera in each of your apartment’s rooms, and you could remove these cameras or leave them in place, what would you do? Do you think your behavior would be exactly the same, with the cameras and without them? Do you drive exactly the same, with and without a police car tailing you?

I think there's a big difference between a camera put there specifically to surveil you, and a camera you purchased as part of your electronic device, which is, absent someone specifically targeting you, under your control and used for your convenience to video chat with your loved ones. I think there's also a big difference between how one would act with the possibility of someone watching them (who, if they are watching, are doing so only by illegally accessing my personal device) and how one would act with the certain knowledge of being watched by legitimate authorities. Nuance is a thing that exists.
