This pre-supposes that some elite gets to decide for us what we think privacy is. Sure, there are lots of people posting personal information to the web, but you can not conclude from this that NONE of us value our own privacy.
HIPPA is Orwellian. It allows any bureaucrat to check your medical records without asking you first.
This is the key: you have to ask first, whether you can look at someone's private information.
Although the violation of privacy is a subjective harm it's precisely the kind of Western ethical luxury that such a security program would be set up to protect.
Never Never give up your Constitution or Bill of Rights for the promise of safety. Never trade your Freedom for Safety. The people in every case in history have lost there very lives in the end. Don't be fooled by the carrot. If we don't learn by history how can we ever move forward. (End the Fed)
Never be fooled by trading your Freedom for Security. In every single case imposed by government, the people in the end lost there lives.
If we do not look at history how can we move forward. Don't be fooled, Freedom for security is a death wish i.e. do not give away your constitution or Bill or Rights. Stand firm do not give in.
There is already generational apathy, in my opinion when it comes to ones freedoms and privacy. I don't think that people generally have something to hide. I find that, it's more how private information is being manufactured and controlled by the individuals and/or organisations, who do not consider the integrity and boundaries of our right to individual privacy ! In other words, our freedoms and privacy are being encroached upon for the sake of the all encompassing "data-bases". Apathy...
It's important that some issues be discussed, and there's a connection between privacy and guilt/shame. For many things, it seems like people that protect information do it because there's something to hide.

Is that too much to ask?

No it's not an ethical luxury. It's a right that you have to earn.
