Quotes by Raymond Wacks (?)

“the perhaps rather prosaic truth that law is an imperfect yet indispensable vehicle by which both to conserve and transform society”

“When our security is under siege, so – inevitably – is our liberty. A world in which our every movement is observed erodes the very freedom this snooping is often calculated to protect. Naturally, we need to ensure that the social costs of the means employed to enhance security do not outweigh the benefits.”
― Raymond Wacks, Privacy: A Very Short Introduction
