That's one of the most stupid sentences that exist. There is just too much wrong in it.

Nah...
If you don't have a facebook page revealing every aspect of your life including tons of photos of your kids there's something sketchy about you...
Yeah its like if you are a law abiding citizen you dont deserve privacy. Such bullshit.
So why go government employees and the people making these accusations get to keep their anonymity? Because whenever you try to get them to reveal all their personal information they're suddenly against it, people who make this argument are just hypocrites and want data on everyone except themselves.
Indeed, like cockroaches they do their dirty work in the dark where we can't see them. They prefer the light shone on us, so they can better understand how to take advantage of us.

There are several threads in this forum asking people for (personal) information about themselves and there's also been plenty of people asking what's the problem with giving out said info, so I thought I'd just make a post to address this issue.
The argument, "If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to hide" is invalid. Not only have monumental atrocities been precipitated by this premise historically, but people are being taken advantage of every day by being care free with their personal information. For example, many people will make available their name and address in any number of ways, then post on their facebook page that they will be vacationing away from home only to come back and find they've been robbed. There are many other ways you could get hurt, even unintentionally. Unfortunately, not everyone is as responsible (with your info), or nice, or as stable as you'd like to believe, including your own government. If you're still not convinced, please read the following article to get a clearer perspective.
Why Privacy Matters Even if You Have 'Nothing to Hide'
Have fun and be safe everyone!
