That's true, but starting the question on that basis and also framing the question around it is important. The public / audience of the debate need to be constantly reminded that these rules apply to them as well and they need to ask themselves, what am I comfortable with living under? Do I trust this administration? The current law enforcement? Forever? What could they do to me or my family if we suddenly become persona non grata? To be honest even under this system people can reason that this is just giving the police etc powers, so even then their "privacy" isn't really at risk. They aren't necessarily thinking that: - data can be leaked - data could be sold - you can get malicious officers - the data can be used for other purposes - etc These are the other parts of the conversation that need to also be thought about because otherwise this is just another security blanket.
