More From Edward Snowden

Nobody needs to justify why they "need" a right: the burden of justification falls on the one seeking to infringe upon the right. but even if they did, you can't give away the rights of others because they're not useful to you. more simply, the majority cannot vote away the natural rights of the minority. arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say.
Fall Rights Giving
When you say, ‘i have nothing to hide,’ you’re saying, ‘i don’t care about this right.’ you’re saying, ‘i don’t have this right, because i’ve got to the point where i have to justify it.’ the way rights work is, the government has to justify its intrusion into your rights.

Listen: people are always saying, 'rickey says rickey.' but it's been blown way out of proportion. people might catch me, when they know i'm ticked off, saying, 'rickey, what the heck are you doing, rickey?' they say, 'darn, rickey, what are you saying rickey for? why don't you just say, 'i?' but i never did. i always said, 'rickey,' and it become something for people to joke about.

I love saying 'yes' and i love saying 'please.' saying 'yes' doesn't mean i don't know how to say no, and saying 'please' doesn't mean i am waiting for permission. 'yes please' sounds powerful and concise. it's a response and a request. it is not about being a good girl; it is about being a real woman.
