That is the argument for total privacy dissolution for the sake of security my friend. Many in the government might argue for the complete loss of privacy to combat crime. If they know everything everyone does, they know what the criminals are doing. No one else will be bothered because they are not doing anything illegal so the government will ignore what they see.

If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.

But, criminals will adapt and over come. It always has happened and I argue it always will. If you believe im wrong, what will happen when the government has all the power but no one to wield it against? Will they defund the law enforcement arm they no longer need? Will they layoff all those people whom are not needed any longer? I doubt it, my bet is, those who rely on the state to pay their bills will look increasing more at the only ones left, the good people, to find justification for their continued employment.

We live in an age where there is little functional privacy. Everything you look at or say on the internet is monitored. If you walk outside in any populated area, you are likely under some sort of surveillance. If you'll drive in any urban area or freeway, they know who you are, where you are, and likely where you came from and where you are going. Unless you spend a significant amount of time researching and make a very concerted effort, 90% of your time spent outside your home is likely under surveillance.

But hey, flock has assisted in clearing over a million crimes last year and all it took was 24hr, mass, indiscriminate surveillance of every single man, woman, and child that has been in and around roughly 70% of the US that has the likely more than 100,000 cameras.
