Is Privacy Worth It?
'If you check any given privacy forum – especially the ones with a heavy overlap of mainstream users such as Reddit – you’ll find no shortage of people asking “is all this work worth it?” and/or announcing that they’re giving up privacy because it’s too much work. So what gives? Is privacy worth the work?
The short answer, which I’m sure will come as no surprise to most of my readers, is “of course it is.” The more nuanced follow up, however, is that it’s only worth the work if you’re putting in the right amount of work.'

The Hidden Benefits of Digital Minimalism
'Digital minimalism is something we think about less, but I think it’s equally as important. But I think the reason people don't think about it so much is that it's relatively invisible. Physical materialism is easy to see. You don’t have to guess if someone is a hoarder or not, and you know you have way too much stuff once you start packing to move and get frustrated at the literal boxes of crap you haven’t even touched or thought about in years (this is why The Minimalists suggest a “packing party” as a way to downsize: pack up as if you’re about to move and use that opportunity to throw away those things you haven’t used in years and no longer want). It’s harder to see digital materialism and hoarding.'

Since almost everyone can righteously condemn various types of authoritarian injustice, why can so few even THINK about literally the ONLY check against totalitarianism?
