> I'm just a regular guy who really has nothing to hide

Yeah, you do.

Post your nudes.

Post your full financial details.

Post your whole medical history.

Post every crime you might have committed, even as a juvenile.

Post all your credit cards and bank account details.

Hmmmm, so you ARE hiding those, eh? Quit framing this as "nothing to hide", because we ALL have things we hide... Not because they're illegal or anything, but because it protects us.

Exactly and if they can't keep FBI data locked down how are they going to keep what they harvest from the plebes. You really want your insurer, landlord, employer, bank knowing all this?

Sorry, but its not 'I have nothing to hide so who cares'...it's 'I have nothing to hide, and you also have absolutely no right to access my data and I will make that as hard as I possibly can.'

This is different than arguing 'I have nothing to hide and also because of that you get free reign to everything'?

But really, I don't take nudes cause why?, my financials are remarkably average, I have no medical history that I care about people knowing (broke my hand once), I've haven't broken any law's, I don't use credit cards...?

That doesn't mean you are allowed to access my devices on whims, track my daily movements relentlessly.

So why does the government get to do all of those things? Especially when they've already demonstrated that they're not very good at using them to achieve the stated goal of improving security.
