Privacy is entwined with freedom. You only have to ask yourself the simple question of whether people could jerk off under the watchful gaze and radar ears of an "all-seeing" government, to arrive at this conclusion.
You might also arrive at this conclusion if you consider a scenario where you discard your privacy. In a large, crowded bar of strangers, would you feel anxiety or hesitation in sharing personal secrets (perhaps about your sexuality) or removing all your clothes (with the threat of revealing personal inadequacies)? If you do, then privacy is important to you. If you don't feel any anxiety or hesitance at these thoughts, do you think everyone else would share your indifference? I think not.
Why do people close curtains? Why do people wear clothes? Why do people whisper to one another? Why do people use passwords? Why do people keep secrets? Why do people masturbate alone? Why do celebrities revile the press intruding into their holiday and home spaces? The common thread in these questions is privacy.Therefore, I think privacy is indelibly entwined with freedom.

I love how shallow that makes women look :-)
For once men get a break.
