The “nothing to hide” term has always felt weird to me. It implies you are doing something wrong, which assumes the person wanting to look is right.
I prefer “It’s dangerous to be right when the government is wrong” instead.
Not to mention, I prefer to not be part of the post-sale monetization revenue stream. Or be constantly bombarded by ads. Or to have my PII or other sensitive information leaked all over the place because basically all companies are absolute shit at infosec at some point in time, in one way or another.
