Privacy by Default is a goal of the Elixxir Platform. In your opinion, why is Privacy by Default critical for the future of the internet? Everyone has the right to anonymity.

Anonymity and decentralization help ordinary people to remain free, to express their opinions. This is one of the ways to deal with the existing system, where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
