“I’ve got nothing to hide”: the biggest lie of our time

Watch till the end, because this phrase people keep repeating is far more dangerous than it sounds.

Every time privacy comes up, someone says: I’ve got nothing to hide. But saying that is like saying: I don’t need free speech, because I’ve got nothing to say. It’s an illusion.

Privacy isn’t for those hiding something. It’s for those who have something to protect. For example, our freedom. It’s for all of us.

Without privacy laws, anyone could know exactly where you are, right now. Your GPS would be public. Anyone could see you’re not home and decide to come in.

Without privacy, companies could read your messages to target you with ads. Your boss could see who you talk to, when you go to bed, how long you stay online. Hackers could build the perfect scam without even breaking a law.

Phishing already works too well. Imagine if there were no privacy limits: they’d know your kids’ names, their school, your schedule, your habits. They’d send you an email that looks exactly like your boss’s. And you’d fall for it.

Privacy isn’t a luxury. It’s a wall. It’s what keeps power, public or private, from getting too close to our lives. It’s the line that protects our freedom to think, make mistakes, and change our minds without being watched.

So no, it’s not true that you’ve got nothing to hide. We all have something to protect: our humanity.
