No need to apologize, Robert. We all make mistakes.
Well, it is about privacy (all those microphones wouldn't have to just
listen for gunshots) and about empowering the police state. As I see it,
Cypherpunks aren't primarily interested in crypto as an end, but rather as
a means to an end. I'll leave the determination of what end(s) we have
in mind. Probably, though, they would strongly overlap with concern about
a police state with ubiquitous microphones, and (doG forbid) automated
machine guns.
Think about it.
