I think you'll find a lot of coherent arguments for privacy's value in this thread.
It goes along the lines of: Privacy is valuable because without privacy A, B, and C will be possible. And, we can all agree A, B, and C would be very very bad.
There are two ways to attack this argument:
1) A, B, and C aren't that bad when compared to the benefits of operating in an environment with less privacy.
2) A, B, and C are possible but unlikely. I.e. this is fearmongering.

I tend to go with 2.
