It's not that there something to hide, it's that privacy is slipping away and we need to take it back. There is no place in a civil society for special levels of authority to have a dossier on it's citizens. The word Stazi comes to mind. It's all about freedom and having the choice of privacy where the people choose and the we have no secret rulers.

Kudos to grandma.
