Kurt discusses the broader civil liberties context, not just privacy, but free expression (code is speech), due process for government inquiries, and the value of anonymity in effectuating those rights. He also talks about how the Zcash community can help protect these rights, with lessons from his work in digital rights advocacy, by learning the issues, building grassroots support and having their voices heard.
