I hear arguments like &amp;#x27;I have nothing to hide&amp;#x27; and &amp;#x27;If it stops terrorism, why not&amp;#x27;.&lt;p&gt;I try to tell people that they should demand a right to privacy from the state, but I find it hard to not come across as a tin foil hat wearing goverment-skeptic. What arguments do you use with people that don&amp;#x27;t understand the web all that well to get them to care about this stuff?</text></comment>
