As someone with nothing to hide, I'm ok with this.
Edit: Bunch of perverts, sexual harassers, and scammers on lemmy huh? Only cements my stance on increased police presence....
Cool, let me see all your usernames and passwords then.
If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him.

Missing /s?
Show us your butthole then
Risky post of the day
Edit: why are you downvoting me? You may get a butthole pic from this! That feels risky haha
Let me show you my budhole
It's a place where my buddies hang out!
Alright, then show me your text messages and location data over the past year. If you have nothing to hide then it should be no big deal, right?
Show me your badge; identify yourself as a law enforcement officer and we got a deal.
I don’t need to show you a badge. No one does. I can’t just go get your info from the data broker.
Perhaps you see the problem here…
I believe there has been a case of this. I remember a person phished some service to give them access to a person's account or account data under the guise of "lives are on the line here". Might've also spoofed the email, but either way, he managed to get it
Edit: something like this

I'll do you one better. Murders have been committed using data purchased from brokers: https://www.wired.com/story/minnesota-lawmaker-shootings-people-search-data-brokers/
That's even easier to do, yeah
:rofl: why would they? All that is already for sale, pally. Find a data broker, fork over twenty bucks, and all that info is fair game. Hell, fire up a TOR client, find a data breach that contains your device's MAC address or static IP, pay five or ten bucks, and same deal, but now I can drain your credit card.
Don't like it? Well the data comes from somewhere, unregulated floodgates of data collection to be bought, resold and scrutinized (or stolen). Nothing to hide, eh?
You are so naive it's almost impressive.
Take your clothes off then, and burn them, if you've 'got nothing to hide'. Let's see your address and ssn. Where do you work, and what position do you hold?
Oh, suddenly you have changed your stance on the matter... funny how that works.
Try searching for yourself and let the realization and dread set in that most of those hypothetical questions I just asked, I can find out, without needing to ask you directly - because you've given them away, while having 'nothing to hide'.
Forgot the /s ?
If I took this argument in good faith, also consider your behaviors can be used against you and your neighbor. I've heard people say TikTok knew they were bisexual before the user themself knew it. Massive amounts of data on human behavior can be used to sell you the newest phone or the newest infringement of your rights.
Then why wear clothes?

You’ve deleted a lot of comments for someone who doesn’t want to hide anything.
