Another project endorsing privacy and not listing any reasons and/or examples why privacy is a good thing. I have yet to find one.

  A reason why privacy is a good thing? Have you been living under a rock?

    No, actually. Unlike you, I have been talking about the issue with people. People that aren't very tech savvy too. A lot of them will comment with "I have nothing to hide," or just "I don't care, it doesn't concern me," or even "it's a good thing" and most of them give more credibility to what's written online than to a single person explaining them various reasons how that system can be abused. That's why I feel pro-privacy projects should explain why privacy is good. Because a lot of people don't seem to realize that. Kind of like you didn't realize that it's not me who needs a well-worded explanation (though I would surely spread it).

      Not quite unlike me. ;) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6201175 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6201175
