Comment on Data privacy: how to counter the "I have nothing to hide" argument?
faberfedor@lemmy.world 11 months agoI’m all for privacy, but the argument I have nothing to hide … is hard to argue with, when it comes to the average person, because the truth is that they don’t matter and most likely no-one cares about their specific data.
In that case, please post your real name, tax id (SSN in the States) and annual household income.
N.B. None of this information is private.

Yea obviously not that… Like I said bank account stuff everyone gets… Google isn’t harvesting bank account numbers.
Privacy and not getting hacked is not the same thing.
My point is that most people just keep their banking safe and don’t care about the rest, hence “I got nothing to hide” attitude
