Hi,
It is people who need privacy, not democracy. Abstract concept to justify, sell and defend the idea of invading, attacking or defending a territory or an idea against a worse evil.
This tactic has been used in modern times for decades. Although years after each conflict, regulatory change, etc; it was demonstrated that the real objective was nothing more than a change in power, ending groups that promote real improvements for the population, control of the production of certain products, etc.
If you look a little you will see that there is no country that has democracy (perhaps a little exception of Switzerland) even if some political parties call themselves so. For example, representation system that can be parliamentary monarchy, parliamentary republic, parliamentary presidency, etc.
The trap they use to deceive people is to use the word "democracy" as a euphemism for everything trying to cover up the fact that in most countries there is partitocracy and when not a single party, each one worse than the other.
