I mean the example is a bit contrived ... but his point that "I have nothing to hide" is a fallacy stands. Another, better example: Normally, where you work is not a secret. It is something that most people would tell strangers if asked about. Now, say you are testing your "market value" by sending out job applications. Now suddenly you may not want to disclose where you work. This is actually not a contrived example, a friend of mine was let go because the HR guys handling one of his applications knew somebody from his current company, word got around and his current management deemed the risk of him "stealing work secrets" too high. So they put him on paid leave and he never entered that facility again.
