Summary

Top 3 Value Bombs
1. Privacy isn't about hiding wrongdoing; it's about protecting freedom, relationships, and democracy.
2. If you wouldn't want your messages on a public billboard, they shouldn't be stored in insecure systems.
3. You can't misuse data you don't have; real privacy starts by limiting what platforms can collect in the first place.
