The commonality is “I don’t think that I have anything to hide” or more specifically, “I don’t fully understand what exactly I am hiding from or why I need to hide.”
Last I checked, most people understand privacy from other people at some level. I only say that because I still see people wearing clothes and closing the door when using the restroom.
What they don’t understand is why they need privacy from centralized points of failure/exploitation.
