    I'm starting to think that those in power are the ones who are going to lose out the most with this loss of privacy. I'm just a poor schmo with a middle-class life and nothing to hide (which doesn't mean that I don't want my privacy). They're the ones with huge secrets and terrible skeletons. If we all have to lose our privacy then I think they're going to be the ones who suffer for it.

      I think they're going to be the ones who suffer for it.

      Except their skeletons can, will, and have in the past been used as leverage for legislation and rulings that go against public interest.

      In the end, "we" suffer far more than "they," regardless of whose secrets are under scrutiny.
