Summary: The following video features Martino who addresses the issues of privacy and individual rights in the era of digital age that everyone should treat seriously. It is not a thing that if you do not have anything bad, then you should not worry about people knowing about it. It is innate in people to want to take certain facts in certain details about our lives and keep them to ourselves and only release them to people that we trust and understand us. It is surprising to know that even if nothing is happening to you, individually knowing that you are being watched or your privacy is being eroded affects how you react to things. He appealed that if we cannot protect ourselves, ultimately, we cannot be ourselves.
