I'm not talking about [nothing to hide](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Nothing_to_hide), although that is also a very common attitude. It has been refuted [ad nauseum](https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_nauseam) by privacy advocates, so I won't do it again here. I'm talking about the feeling people have that the corporate/government surveillance state ([Big Brother](https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surveillance_state)) will collect their data one way or another no matter what, so there's no point in even trying to avoid mass surveillance. Privacy is already dead. Mass surveillance and its [long-term negative side-effects](https://www.socialcooling.com/) are inevitable. That's the attitude of so many people and it's disappointing. So, I'm going to offer an alternative way to think about privacy and surveillance. |
