Privacy and Punishment
Philosophers have focused on why privacy is of value to innocent people with
nothing to hide. I argue that for people who do have something to hide, such as a past
crime or bad behavior in a public place, informational privacy can be important for
avoiding undeserved or disproportionate nonlegal punishment. Against the objection that
one cannot expect privacy in public facts, I argue that I might have a legitimate privacy
interest in public facts that are not readily accessible, or in details of a public fact that
implicate my dignity, or in not having a public fact memorialized and spread to more
people than I willingly exposed myself to.
