Stop saying stupid stuff like: "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."

@Npars01 @orange_lux @Tutanota sorry. Just saw the question and thought id answer it.

@rgulick @orange_lux @Tutanota

For techbros, they appear to prefer a virtual world of fake perfection, over a real world of imperfection.

In VR, they are admired by others who flatter them & never face threats to a fragile ego.

A cartoon with a very on point message is copied then "optimized" without consent by the original artist.

@chaoddity @orange_lux @Tutanota

Your answer was truthful. Truth about AI is getting to be in short supply.

AI is a theft from artists, authors, & artisans.

AI is a massive effort by the fossil fuel industry seeking to keep its hegomony.

@Tutanota innocent until proven otherwise.
Surveillance assumes not innocent

[keepush@mastodon.social]

@Tutanota nobody is innocent. no one can judge whether anyone is innocent.

and the "stupid stuff"you say, I have a batter words:无欲则刚, and it's no stupid.

[ramblingsteve@floss.social]

@Tutanota I fear their definition of wrong.

@Tutanota "Nothing to hide no reason to look"

[djh1997@mastodon.iow.social]

@Tutanota
I love the Terry Pratchett quote

Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase ‘The innocent have nothing to fear’, believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like ‘The innocent have nothing to fear’.

[pamela1960@kolektiva.social]

@Tutanota Anybody who does say that, shouldn't be allowed any curtains, blinds, or any other window covers at their homes. After all if they have nothing to hide, they've nothing to fear.

@Pamela1960 @Tutanota I countered a friend with that very same argument down the pub.

His reply:"I don't care!"

What an idiot.

[pamela1960@kolektiva.social]

@wood5y @Tutanota With friends like that, who needs intelligent conversation.

[toriver@mas.to]

@Tutanota The first phrase can often be followed by a «why are you doxxing me?» and the retort «why would you want your address and phone number hidden?»

[hazzino@mastodon.illumos.cafe]

@Tutanota Everyone has something to hide, when you go to the Toilet you hide yourself!

[mariob@liberdon.com]

@Tutanota I have nothing to hide, only from people that I know and trust. #privacy is a duty, not a right.

[csepp@merveilles.town]

@Tutanota Honestly, even the hardcore capitalists should understand that secrets leaking out can absolutely wreck your business. It's wild that Zuckerberg can buy the land around his Hawaii mansion, just so people can't see what's going on on his land, all while selling creepglasses.

[timwardcam@c.im]

@Tutanota In particular, in a free country you do not have to carry ID with you, you cannot be stopped on the street and asked for "papers please", and you cannot be arrested for not having them with you.

(I'm looking at you, France.)

[kittenkoder@mastodon.social]

@Tutanota Motorists are not innocent, they are psychotic murderers.

[purplerabbit@goo.dgirl.gay]

@Npars01 @Tutanota ew slop

[alexraffa@mastodon.uno]

@Tutanota agree! but, if I'm not tracking you, I can't know if you are innocent!!

@Tutanota
There are thousands of laws, rules, and regulations, federal, state, and local, that you could be unknowingly in violation of. Constant surveillance will expose an excuse to apprehend you.
