We should use this occasion to educate people about privacy and encryption. Please add your thoughts. Lets try to come up with something in next two or three days.

@fayadfami indeed. The idea of the letter is to educate people.

@vik I think those scenarios does not cover the deeper issues of surveillance. People may think they just have to be careful in social media. The threat is not strangers who might get data, but people we trust (facebook) without realizing the poor bargain.

@praveenarimbrathod I was thinking of mass market appeal first - so hitting bigger numbers with a message that is closer to home / easier to relate to. Could be the start of a series - cover the deeper issues in the next installment?

@praveenarimbrathod When people realise it's happening to them, they suddenly wake up and start to get bothered about it

@praveenarimbrathod yes - encouraging to see there are some potential constitutional protections that might allow the courts to create some clarity around the right to privacy.
