- baseballdork 2y agoIndeed, now I know that when I get my private plane (I'm temporarily not a billionaire) I will also benefit. Privacy isn't some monolithic good. There are, frequently, very good reasons to restrict privacy. Things like the finances of politicians, court proceedings, and the ultra-wealthy flying around in private jets disproportionally dumping C02 into the atmosphere all seem to be worth sacrificing a little privacy.
- IG_Semmelweiss 2y agoFull privacy for private individuals. Full transparency for public officials, all types. If you are on the public dole, you forego your right to privacy. Its not that difficult. I don't consider a jet, of any ownership, to be fair game. If you want to go after pollution, then do it. Removing privacy is not an acceptable substitute.
