Secrecy can be found in every aspect of daily life. Sante states that the internet takes away all privacy. Once something is posted, there is no way to know that it will ever come off. A persons privacy can never be truly private on the internet.
The next topic mentioned in Sante's essay was the Soviet Union. Due to many rules and regulations secrecy became a large ritual in their daily lives. In order to become a better place, the Soviets would hold secret meetings. Although this part of the essay was a little bit confusing, it still stressed the problem of secrecy. They might not have done it for a bad reason, but secrecy still is a secret.
The last topic in Sante's essay is confessional culture, it is taught in churches that confessing is the way to heaven. It takes away any chance of a person to have privacy. They have become so caught up in daily activities, that the thought that they would not confess something, would scare a person because confessing is the right thing to do. People also tells another their secrets because they want to feel close to them and confide in them.
