I find this to be a lazy take though. Plenty of cultures have no nudity shame, have a culture of no locked doors, and know both who everyone is and where they live.
I am privacy conscious, but this is a weak argument.
- junon 5y agoIt's to illustrate a point, not directly to explain privacy. Most people in English speaking countries do not live in such places, and do have to worry about privacy in such ways. Unfortunately there's no real way of convincing someone so blind to privacy and its importance without big, dramatic examples. Such people need theatre to understand very fundamental things. Hence my comment. The majority of people I've faced who claim the whole "I have nothing to hide" simply haven't faced a violation of privacy in a way that is meaningful to them, and thus don't understand its importance.
- spywaregorilla 5y agoThose are weak examples though. They're not compelling. Most people wouldn't really care if the government had a nude photo of them. And the reason people lock their front doors is for security, not privacy.
