    As someone with nothing to hide, I’m ok with this.

    Edit: Bunch of perverts, sexual harassers, and scammers on lemmy huh? Only cements my stance on increased police presence…

      Hey everyone, the name caller above is going to give the police state a big ol’ bear hug after recess is over. Why has Lemmy forced their hand like this?!

      Scrolling through your comment history I see at a glance you’ve deleted several of your own comments so you have at least something to hide

      What’s legal today might be illegal tomorrow. Short sighted comment.

      If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him.

      Do you want to live in 1984? Because this is how we get to 1984.

      Take your clothes off then, and burn them, if you’ve ‘got nothing to hide’. Let’s see your address and ssn. Where do you work, and what position do you hold?

      Oh, suddenly you have changed your stance on the matter… funny how that works.

      Try searching for yourself and let the realization and dread set in that most of those hypothetical questions I just asked, I can find out, without needing to ask you directly - because you’ve given them away, while having ‘nothing to hide’.

      Alright, then show me your text messages and location data over the past year. If you have nothing to hide then it should be no big deal, right?

        Show me your badge; identify yourself as a law enforcement officer and we got a deal.

          Since due process is off the table, we’ve determined (without a trial) that you’re not a citizen, and you’re being deported to a country you’ve never been to, where they will imprison you at our request, and they don’t speak any language you do.

          Why? Because we’re ICE. Fuck you.

          I don’t need to show you a badge. No one does. I can’t just go get your info from the data broker.

          Perhaps you see the problem here…

          :rofl: why would they? All that is already for sale, pally. Find a data broker, fork over twenty bucks, and all that info is fair game. Hell, fire up a TOR client, find a data breach that contains your device’s MAC address or static IP, pay five or ten bucks, and same deal, but now I can drain your credit card.

          Don’t like it? Well the data comes from somewhere, unregulated floodgates of data collection to be bought, resold and scrutinized (or stolen). Nothing to hide, eh?

      If I took this argument in good faith, also consider your behaviors can be used against you and your neighbor. I’ve heard people say TikTok knew they were bisexual before the user themself knew it. Massive amounts of data on human behavior can be used to sell you the newest phone or the newest infringement of your rights.

          In here it’s mostly not, but it’s currently +5 degrees celsius outside so I’m keeping my clothes. And whatever little is left of my privacy too, thank you.
