I have had this conversation. The response is, "I have nothing to hide. My life is boring." I have gotten this response from people I know have things to hide. One guy had cheated on his wife and was illegally selling marijuana. But he said "I'm a small fish. They have more important things to deal with."
For people who warned about NSA spying, they watched as the response went from "that's impossible" to "that's illegal" to "that's not happening" to "it's targeted" to "it's everybody overseas only" to "it's everybody but why do you care." What I learned is, many people are apolitical and they will just use whatever is the most convenient excuse that justifies continued inaction.
