Many of us on this list have heard the lines on security vs privacy, 
notably the ones on terrorism that go something like this:  "If you knew 
what I know, you would not be fighting for privacy rights", or "if you 
had ever experienced terrorism, you would not feel this way".  Simon 
Davies, the founder of Privacy International, has written what I think 
is a great piece on this topic.  I recommend it, especially for those of 
us who are trying to get human rights considered more thoughtfully at ICANN.
