The world is so big especially in my city of Davao. All
human beings here have three lives: public, private, and secret. When a private
talk over a bottle of wine is broadcast on the radio, what can it mean but that
the world is turning into a concentration camp?
From Wikipedia: When something is private to a person, it
usually means there is something within them that is considered inherently
special or personally sensitive. The degree to which private information is
exposed therefore depends on how the public will receive this information,
which differs between places and over time. Privacy partially intersects
security, including for instance the concepts of appropriate use, as well as
protection, of information. Privacy may also take the form of bodily integrity.
Lesson learned:
You want something to be in private? Live in a bottle where
no one can see you, no one can talk to you. That is completely private. If you don’t
want somebody to know your secret, then don’t talk about it to somebody since
it might be the start of any conversation in the future.
-Kimuyo
The right to privacy is our right to keep a domain around
us, which includes all those things that are part of us, such as our body,
home, thoughts, feelings, secrets and identity. The right to privacy gives us
the ability to choose which parts in this domain can be accessed by others, and
to control the extent, manner and timing of the use of those parts we choose to
disclose.
-1987 Constitution of the Philippines.
