There is a difference between having nothing to hide and not closing the door when talking a shit
What I'm hearing is that people have an inert desire for privacy, EVEN if they don't have anything to hide (what are you hiding in the toilet?) I don't see why that wouldn't extend into the digital realm....
And what is it?
A right to privacy? Not in my country, thank you very much.
The government has every right to watch you take a shit and if you don't acknowledge that then you must be conspiring to deprive us of our freedoms.
