Why privacy matters
Privacy isn’t about hiding.
It’s about freedom, dignity, and control.
Without privacy, people self-censor.
Without control over data, autonomy is lost.
Without limits on surveillance, power is abused.
Privacy protects individuals, democracy, and trust in technology.
Privacy is a right — not a privilege.
@Tutanota Privacy is important because it gives me the freedom to communicate and live without constant surveillance.
@Tutanota without the right to privacy it becomes a fast track to no rights at all.
@Tutanota very simple
Its a human right.
@Tutanota privacy matters because I want to be relaxed finally in the world full of argues and judgment.
@Tutanota Because I think that everything you do can be misinterpreted and that some people consider you suspicious simply because you are interested in privacy.
Privacy is a basic human right. We should all have the freedom to speak our minds without fear of being punished for saying something unliked by those in power. We also deserve the right to keep some information, like our medical records, private ao that information isn't used against us.
So, you'd like to know why I believe that "privacy matters".
Why do you ask?
It's not that I have anything to hide, but you have no right to know why I believe that "privacy" does, in fact, "matter".
Also, I feel that Santa Claus dude has been watching me all year.
@Tutanota
A society can only progress with sufficient privacy and the freedom of thought that comes with it. Innovative ideas that drive societal progress are not born in the center but often emerge at the edges of society. Without privacy, diversity dies, and with it, the society's ability to evolve. The loss of privacy is the end of freedom.
Privacy means experimental, new, and potentially controversial ideas have the safety to develop while they are still too vulnerable to stand on their own. Lack of privacy chains thought to the status quo.
@Tutanota
Parce que c'est un droit élémentaire,
Parce que la surveillance et le contrôle nourrissent les moutons,
Parce que ça sent le facho de plus en plus !
@Tutanota Freedom! Privacy is essential to avoid being controlled...
@Tutanota Because privacy is a fundamental human right. It shouldn’t need to be defended or justified.
@Tutanota Because my digital life is nobody's business but my own.
@Tutanota Attacking encryption, fundamental rights, privacy or open source projects like GrapheneOS, Siganl, Tuta is a threat to any EU countries constitution, freedom/democracy, economy and business integrity/security, (cyber) resilience.
@Tutanota It's not like I have something to hide, it's about corporations doesn't have the right to collect everyting about me!
@Tutanota people who know they are being watched behave differently.
And without privacy, and anonymity, revolutions are much harder.. Our current state is abysmal. Whatever it is we are doing is literally destroying society and the planet.
@Tutanota Even if you feel like you don't have anything to hide, privacy (and use of privacy-oriented tools) helps to protect those otherwise at risk of oppressive forces.
@Tutanota It's important because what you may do and say now might be legal, but in the future may be considered illegal by an authoritarian regime. Privacy ensures that your former actions and words remain private and that may keep you safe in difficult times.
@Tutanota Because there's NO point in losing it?
@Tutanota Privacy isn't about you hiding something you've done wrong but about protecting you from the bad intentions of the ones investigating you.
@Tutanota imo, privacy is the most important human right: not because encryption is more important than stopping genocide or climate change; but because without private communication, safeguarding all of our other rights becomes impossible in the wake of authoritarian regimes
@Tutanota It empowers the subject of the right to privacy.
@Tutanota because I don't like getting recommendations based on overheard private conversations
@Tutanota because there are people who need it more than I do. I'm just doing my part by blending in the crowd.
Why #privacy matter
This is what civil society, in particular the #DigitalRights community, is up against now: 🇺🇸 has barred leaders of @hateaid, the Global #Disinformation Index, and the Centre for Countering Digital Hate from entering the US
Expect more restrictions, threats, and intimidation against public-interest NGOs globally

@Tutanota Greater freedom and peace of mind 
@Tutanota Privacy matters for private reasons ;)
Because your encryption is better than my dancing and hopefully nobody's watching.
2026 feature request: Encrypt my dancing (just in case).
@Tutanota My business is my own. Not the government's, and certainly not the weak minded old men who think they run the world.
@Tutanota it's not about having something to hide but rather having everything to protect (I've heard someone say these words but I don't remember the author)
Because opposing genocide, being a Trans ally, and even supporting labour unions makes me a target.
