As for privacy 'glad rag' - if you want to wear a gimp mask and a superman costume and be private then draw the bloomin' curtains! I would rather be safe and sound by losing a bit of privacy than feeling extra private with 3 crack-heads getting "medieval on my arse" whilst they rob my house.
I think if you look at the released court/newspaper reports of some recent cases of "medieval arse" you will find that the first thing they did was shut the building(s) down....
Anyway, you are really losing the point here, and I do feel sorry that your perspective is so skewed.
