This. This is why you do not submit willingly, regardless of what you have to hide. Fascism doesn’t give a shit if you’re innocent.
MalReynoldsDepending on context my favorite answers to 'Why do you need privacy if you have nothing to hide ?" are
“I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgements and intentions are.”,
“Arguing that you don’t care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.” - Edward Snowden,
and “The only difference between a wizard hat and a dunce cap is the wide brim of privacy.”
My favorite is:
“So take off your pants. Right here, right now.”
Gets the point across quickly and viscerally.
