Reality in many countries around the world is privacy
is not respected, and the company and government agencies
disregard applicable laws!

In a Democratic state
has the law - the government - the law authorities to ensure that the laws protect privacy to be respected.
If these disrespect belong to the perpetrators in court.

I think privacy has apparently been declared "bad for business and the economy" by most governments and business enterprises...

It's an uphill battle for the individual these days.

Hi there, have you seen this link, if yes - then sorry to post it:
Privacy? I don't have anything to hide.
privacytools.io/#about_config: Privacy Tools | Encryption against global mass surveillance
Over the last 16 months, as I've debated this issue around the world, every single time somebody has said to me, "I don't really worry about invasions of privacy because I don't have anything to hide." I always say the same thing to them. I get out a pen, I write down my email address. I say, "Here's my email address. What I want you to do when you get home is email me the passwords to all of your email accounts, not just the nice, respectable work one in your name, but all of them, because I want to be able to just troll through what it is you're doing online, read what I want to read and publish whatever I find interesting. After all, if you're not a bad person, if you're doing nothing wrong, you should have nothing to hide." Not a single person has taken me up on that offer.
Glenn Greenwald in Why privacy matters - TED Talk

Global Mass Surveillance - The Fourteen Eyes
The UKUSA Agreement is an agreement between the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand to cooperatively collect, analyze, and share intelligence. Members of this group, known as the Five Eyes, focus on gathering and analyzing intelligence from different parts of the world. While Five Eyes countries have agreed to not spy on each other as adversaries, leaks by Snowden have revealed that some Five Eyes members monitor each other’s citizens and share intelligence to avoid breaking domestic laws that prohibit them from spying on their own citizens. The Five Eyes alliance also cooperates with groups of third party countries to share intelligence (forming the Nine Eyes and Fourteen Eyes), however Five Eyes and third party countries can and do spy on each other.

For those who say that they do not need any privacy as they have "nothing to hide" are greatly mistaken as the misuse of data can happen with any body.....being a victim of data theft myself.. I don't mind using Best VPN services to protect my sessions and my data....

I have nothing to hide (luckily), unfortunately I have to. My FB is public, well that is the point of social network, to share info about yourself to get to know people. Also all my comments and opinions are public, linked to my name, whatever I say online I would say face to face to anyone. But, yes, here is but coming, but people are generally biased. Whatever you say or do (even when it is completely legal in your country), you are automatically being labeled. Like people hide, when they hire a prostitute, because it is generally not accepted and it might affect their work, friends, etc.

P.S. Privacy does not apply to personal info, which is meant to be hidden, like a credit card number or a social security, etc, to avoid an identity theft.

People don't understand pretty much anything. They won't tell you their personal info on the street because "don't tell anything to strangers", but then they go and spill all of their private info and their whereabouts on Facebook to 3000 "friends". I just find that ultra hilarious.

I see many privacy fanboys like this Greenwald guy, attacking people saying "I have nothing to hide", those fools lack of brain and assume we have nothing to hide to everybody LOL.

No, no, fools, i have nothing to hide to law enforcements, not to common people!

"Nothing to hide" doesn't mean "exposing my life"

This is what is funny. People all concerned with privacy yet updating their timeline each time they go somewhere for a burger.

Put a Pi-Hole on your network and you'll discover 60-80% of the traffic coming/going on your network is telemetry/logging/spying. So to be honest, it's a finger trying to stop a leak on the Hoover Dam these days.

A career change has facilitated the need for me to largely redact myself from everything. It feels kind of good to have a zero-result on Google searches, and to have a redaction team pop all of your public data pushes from things like voter records, property tax assessments and so forth. I like it as it reminds me of the old days before all of this was lost. Even my Linkedin account was vaporized.

I would argue that most, if not all people who are using this specific argument do not even have a shallow understanding on how the data technologies works.
