Do you feel like you might be enjoying a privileged freedom that many can not hope to take advantage of?

For example, I bet you enjoy both a solid competency in your field, and a relatively free or permissive social environment.

Things may be a lot different if an unskilled worker in a repressive society were put in a situation where their social life was highly exposed. I don't know what the exact balance is here, but I feel wary of taking your example as an all-clear on the privacy alarm.
