Abstract

Privacy is a human right and an important need for societies to progress. It is considered as a requirement for maintaining the human condition with dignity and respect (Schneier in The eternal value of privacy, 2006).

Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy.

Ayn Rand (Writer and Novelist, 1905–1982)
