Privilege

The inherent value someone puts onto you based on superficial features. Often based on race, sex, sexuality, identity, religion, class, and physical ability.
Often times privilege is hard to see when looking at the privileged person. Its only obvious when comparing two people who are very similar other then the superficial features that grant you privilege.

Its worth noting that aspects that often influence privilege can affect things such as getting a job and not be an example of privilege, but rather qualification -ex: physical ability in a job requiring large amounts of movement

Class and privilege are not the same thing. Both can effect each other, with privilege or lack there of affecting your ability to make money, and your class influencing how people see you, but they are not the same.

A person will never be less then their perceived inherent value (privilege), meaning someone without that privilege is seen as inherently lesser.

Ex: "Tod would never do that, he's a christian!"

privacy nut

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."
