That's working under the assumption that even the tiny scraps of privacy we have left shouldn't be safe from the government. In light of stuff like police helping blacklist union organizers (https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-43507728 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-43507728) or sharing data on protesters with the company they're protesting against (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_Desalination_Plant#Sharing_of_private_information_with_private_consortia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_Desalination_Plant#S...), that's a very poor assumption to make.
