Oh I totally agree. I find these sort of arguments around privacy and security more interesting than they are concerning, cuz yeah, ultimately if someone wants the data badly enough, they'll get it.
In my personal life, I like to explore all the privacy related gadgets/software I can for two reasons. One is that its just kind of fun. And the other is because ultimately I don't want to make it all that easy for every bit of my personal life to be laid bare on the internet.
Like I said, if somebody wants my data bad enough, they'll get it. But I suppose that puts the onus on me (and the developers of the software I trust), to make the data NOT all that easy to get.
