False. You’ll fear losing privacy and freedom to speak freely even if you have nothing to hide. We have seen this effect in real-time as governments began “secretly” monitoring communication in 2006 and even more so as tech companies started banning speech. You will self-censor even when you have nothing to hide.
Privacy is like the bathroom door. We close it even though everyone knows what we are doing. It’s not a secret.
It’s like the freedom to speak even if you have nothing to say.
You wouldn’t use a public bathroom stall that didn’t have a door. You would be plenty angry and confused if I started arbitrarily dictating what you could and couldn’t say.
You have plenty to fear even when you have nothing to hide.
Privacy should not be confused with secrecy. These two are often conflated by those who wish to compromise your privacy.
