 However, privacy is also, as I argue in Privacy is Power, as collective as it is personal. So the day that democracy falls, we all fall with it because you might be as millionaire as you want. But if there's a strong man who doesn't like you, you're in trouble. And even if that doesn't happen to you, you don't want to live in a country in which there is a failing democracy, where there's no rule of law or where there might be violence or instability. Everybody benefits from having a stable, fair society.
