Everyone who’s ever said “if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear” is somebody trying to bully you into giving them the power to strip you of your dignity at a moment’s notice.

On a whim, whenever it’s convenient for them.

That’s the fight. It’s not about privacy, it’s not about secrets, and it never was. It’s about power.
