BBC News - Apple pulls data protection tool after UK government security row
“In a statement Apple said it was “gravely disappointed” that the security feature would no longer be available to British customers.”
Here in the UK, many typical phone users already assume that their data is shared anyway. Every person that i spoke to about this today asked why I think it’s a problem as they have nothing to hide. A worrying position.
“If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to say” -Edward Snowden
Wasn’t it something more similar to “saying that you don’t care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like saying that you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say”?
Ask them why they don’t keep their toilet in their living room. 😆
Because it would stink. I get your point but there are better ways if demonstrating it.
You’re right. I could never convince my mates. Their typical response “I have nothing to hide, they already have my data”
What if you ask if you can borrow their phone and password for an hour? They have nothing to hide?
😂 they would never do that.
That’s the point isn’t it?
They would say “that’s different” without elaborating why exactly.
Here’s my response to this line of thinking:
“Would you be okay if I fucked your spouse/partner/etc? No? Why not? You’re already having sex with them. What’s the difference?”
Consent. That’s the difference.
Exactly why we must shift from privacy to control, power.
