Sousveillance, as it is called, is part of the answer - governments have no reason to be less transparent than the governed. But areas of opacity are necessary too.
I agree and I wonder if the right thing to do might be completely abandoning the concept of privacy. I think it might happen regardless of what we do, so maybe instead of trying to fight to the last drop of blood, we should just run full-speed in the other direction. Just embrace, as a society, that everyone can know everything about everybody, and learn to live honestly.
It's just a thought that has been floating around my head recently.
