I see it as security is about control, and privacy is about removal. Privacy and security aren't mutually exclusive, but they aren't exactly symbiotic either.

I see it as security is about control, and privacy is about removal. Privacy and security aren't mutually exclusive, but they aren't exactly symbiotic either. It's fair to say an individual would want both security and privacy (for example, as with your home). Like many things, it's about finding the right balance. I'm sure if you look to the extremes of security and privacy you could find a bunch of crazy examples. The wildcard is the who. That is what throws off the scales, as the security/privacy relationship moves from a micro to a macro level, and suddenly a person's real autonomy comes into question.
