    Just pointing out the obvious stupidity in, “if you don’t have anything to hide, just let the cops rifle through anything they want!”

    If you support that kind of thing, you’re either completely stupid, or fascist. Or both. Don’t REQUIRE sensitive information to be available just because you’re too fucking stupid to turn on a feature you like.
