Heh. To be fair the conversation in question was a lot more personal than that -- matters of crime, addiction, forgiveness, and personal change. The "nothing to hide" arguments are irrelevant here -- people absolutely do have things to hide. This is where people seek advice about lawbreaking before they are ready or able to discuss with authorities. We can't have even the pretense that something could be listening in on these convos.
