That's the key - to maintain the garden of liberty, right? This is a generational thing that we must all do continuously. We only have the rights that we protect. It doesn't matter what we say or think we have. It's not enough to believe in something; it matters what we actually defend.

We watch our own people more closely than anyone else in the world.

When it comes to social policies, I believe women have the right to make their own choices, and inequality is a really important issue.

We reject techniques like torture regardless of whether they're effective or ineffective because they are barbaric and harmful on a broad scale. It's the same thing with cyber warfare. We should never be attacking hospitals. We should never be taking down power plants unless that is absolutely necessary to ensure our continued existence as a free people.

There are cyber threats out there, this is a dangerous world, and we have to be safe, we have to be secure no matter the cost.

I don't want to live in a world where there's no privacy, and therefore no room for intellectual exploration and creativity.

These activities can be misconstrued, misinterpreted, and used to harm you as an individual even without the government having any intent to do you wrong.
