Help finding an article

So a while back I came across an article/essay talking about how privacy is more than just a personal right and rather something about society as a whole. It went into detail about different arguments against privacy, such as when personal privacy is sacrificed for the good of the people. I remember a good chunk of it talked about reframing the concept as privacy as a right and the pitfalls of that definition.

I can't remember the name of the article or where I read it and I was hoping one of you might know what I'm talking about, or even have something similar to share

Liberty vs safety, but applicable to privacy as a form of liberty.

It isn't, I was being funny.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

It's the original source for this quote
