A well informed person who thoroughly looks after their privacy whether is it digital or personal, but it's most often the former.
"You think you have ever had any privacy online? Every second you are being data farmed and that information bought and sold. The moment you buy something from a major company they have everything from billing to your shopping habits, etc."
"You need to get into things such as a completely segmented network. VPNs are the very bare minimum basic first step any informed person takes these days. And I'm not sure that's extreme enough either...but even then you're still going to have a bunch of data on you and your activities sold every second. It's not about being a "privacy nut" it's about it being just that bad out there."
"Am I a "privacy nut" by modern standards? Maybe. However you also need to look at things in context. I do still use a smartphone as I don't have much of a choice but I use a custom firmware on it that gives me control over the phone."

When someone shows something with sensitive info to show, they suddenly gain an ability to extend their finger to cover it
"His index finger becomes longer than it should be when he shows his credit card. It's a privacy finger"

Uncountable noun.
Privacy is like that secret stash of dirty magazines you hide under your bed — nobody's supposed to know about it, but you sure as hell don’t want anyone snooping around. It’s all about keeping your shit to yourself, not letting the world poke their noses into your business. You want your personal life to be as off-limits as a no-fly zone over a nuclear plant.
