Privacy is heads, censorship resistance is tails. They're two sides of the same coin. Everything people do together is inherently interactive.

They can be shunned, shamed, jailed or penalized in many other ways. Without privacy, you have no censorship resistance. Without privacy, most people will censor themselves.
