Cory Doctorow talking about privacy. It's hard to get worried about something when the negative effects are too vague and far off. He likens it to smoking.

He also highlights the problem of education systems taking away children's privacy, while trying to tell them privacy is important.

Responsible for their own safety, privacy and choices.
