Résumé

James Rule is puzzled by the ‘idiosyncratic' approach that I take to the philosophical study of privacy. As evidence for this idiosyncracy, he cites my relative indifference to the distinction between consequentialist and deontological perspectives on privacy although these differences are proof of ‘intricate, yet enormously consequential intellectual tensions'. My choice of philosophical topics is ‘unsystematic' and more a reflection of my own ‘intellectual hobby-horses' than a ‘well-worked-out view of what students most need to know'. Finally, Rule concludes, because ‘the most important privacy questions are excruciating', we need ‘more systematic guidance than is provided here'. I am grateful to the editors for the chance to respond to these complaints.
