The Cato Institute has this story about how we don't have privacy anymore. I've thought about this some and it's an interesting problem.

If someone wants to find out everything about you they can. Our whole lives go through the intertubes these days, from bank accounts to employment to what we write on Facebook et al.
If one geek can write protections another can get around them.

But.... there's nearly 400,000,000 people in America, there's privacy in numbers.
The scenario in 1984 would be very difficult as you'd need nearly as many watchers as watched.

What should we do about it? I don't know, I do what we do do about it, don't worry about it until it's too late.
That's the human way.
