I'm not sure that's the best way to counter the quite common "I don't have anything to hide so I don't care if they spy on me" reaction. As the other reply to your comment shows, many would say that it's very unlikely a government agent would bother or want to watch them having sex. I usually counter by reminding them that it's not just about them - it's about journalists, whistleblowers, lawyers, judges, activists, politicians, etc. Should the government be able to access their communications and track their online activities? People generally understand why that is a bad thing. While everybody absolutely should be worried that their personal online activities are being tracked, it seems like that's a harder sell.
