I know data privacy is important and I know that big corporations like Meta became powerful enough to even manipulate elections using our data.
But, when I talk to people in general, most seem to not worry because they “have nothing to hide”, and most are only worried about their passwords, banking apps and not much else.
So, why should people worry about data privacy even if they have “nothing to hide”?
That is not a fair or accurate characterization of what I have been saying.
How could you explain it better for an argument then?
That historic examples such as the Nazis, the Japanese-American internment, and the Rwanda genocide should guide us when deciding what sorts of large-scale demographic data harvesting we as a society want to allow in the first place. That the “right to privacy” in this case is not about personal privacy but of collective privacy.
Which is why even people who “have nothing to hide” should care about privacy rights.
That’s just reiterating the same thing without expanding on it.
This strongly suggests that you already understood me perfectly well, and never needed clarification.
Nowhere did I say I misunderstood.
If you understood then your previous characterization of what I’ve been saying was willfully dishonest.
