The only difference here is that one is more limited and open source.
"Privacy is dead, get over it."
I realize this may be a failure to communicate because of a difference in shared values but I come from the perspective that harm reduction is worthwhile even if you can't fully eliminate the problem. That you can't prevent all crimes doesn't mean you shouldn't try to prevent crime.
Not to mention that the risk profile of having three-letter agencies come after you or having a random obsessive weirdo "collect a dossier" and share it with other obsessive weirdos who get a kick out of making your life miserable because they project their life failures on you is very different. Namely, if you're prominent enough to have an entire state agency try to destroy you, it's probably over an active decision you made (e.g. focusing your life on political activism) whereas for random weirdos to harass you and attempt to drive you into suicide you just need to show up on their radar long enough for them to start making up reasons to hate you.
The difference is that the three letter agency has a budget, process and middle management so at the end of the day someone needs to justify why they're expending resources on making your life miserable whereas the random obsessive weirdo just needs to convince a bunch of other obsessive weirdos that you're a garbage person they can turn into their "lolcow" of the day/week/month/year.
The three letter agency is more likely to inconvenience you out of apathy than to actually try to destroy you intentionally. The random nobody is more likely to try to drive you into suicide for a thrill.
I have however, encountered death threats or obsessive/hostile behavior from people online who decided they have a beef with me for one reason or another. I'm much more inclined to be wary of some unstable individual having the means to find my identity (and therefore my location)- potentially using this to act on their emotions IRL.
In reality, as mentioned by other commenters, I'm not anything they're interested in, at best I'm a datapoint that advertisers try to categorise into a demographic (male, 30 - 50, doesn't give a shit about cars, into tech).
And anyway, they're already doing it, but impersonally.
It's the person who is very personal that I'm not enthused about.
Not only are you happy to never challenge current power in any meaningful way, but you are sure you never will be. If there is a revolution tomorrow and the Trumpists are in charge, or the Marxists, or the Russians or whatever, you're still sure you will be fine with that order too and will never rock the boat.
You're also confident that if you do nothing wrong by them you have nothing to worry about.
Instead, you've been taught to fear the weak, the nobodies. The nameless savage in the night. As if they have any more reason to hate you than the powerful have.

You can't change the NSA, but you can resuce the amount of abuse.
It's the same with guns, USA vs Europe for example.
I am NOT getting over it.
