It was a claim by extension I must admit: You could technically say each American that dies, dies for our freedoms, one of which is our constitutional right to privacy. A specific example I had in mind was those who lost their lives fleeing East Germany and the Stasi: deciding to cross the wall or even talking about it often time resulted in your untimely death. Many people were gunned down trying to climb over. A general "people who died for privacy" netted some decent results as well.
