Kinda like how fascism isn't really that big of a deal, as long as you agree with all the life choices of your dictator

Saying i don't care about privacy because i have nothing to hide is like saying i don't care if someone searches inside my ass at an airport because i have nothing to hide .

While they're searching up there, what if they find things that aren't illegal? Can you request they put them back?

You can try putting a request on their website which won't work if you run an adblocker or reject cookies.

I always knew cookies were code for something

Having nothing to hide isn't the problem. Not caring about privacy is. Activists, lawyers, journalists, doctors, politically opressed, some kinksters and the likes need protection!

When someone says they have nothing to hide it tells me two things about them:

  1. They are a liar
  2. They have something to hide

Everyone's a criminal if you look long and hard enough.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Everyone's a criminal, depending on what is considered a crime.

I always ask the people who "have nothing to hide" if they also leave the door open when they go to a public restroom.

This is a quote from Edward Snowden btw.

Everyone should read his book.

People, especially guys, who say they have nothing to hide will still be using incognito mode for a few minutes a day.

If anyone tells you that, ask to dig through their underwear drawer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It's not a drawer, it's a clothes basket in the living room and you're welcome to dive in any time.

I don't care about freedom of science and education because I'm dumb as shit
