131 sats \ 4 replies \ @siggy47 OP 25 Mar \ parent \ on: Random Privacy Issues On My Cruise privacy
Regarding my wife, she does share my privacy values in theory. In practice, she is far more willing to trade privacy for convenience than me. Regarding the friends we travelled with: My oldest childhood friend is a state government employee. He turned to me when we were getting scanned and said "Big Brother is here. No more privacy " He then laughed and said "good thing we're not criminals." I reflexively said " until they decide we are ", but left it at that.

Good response, it's not up to us to decide if we are criminals or suspects or future criminals or suspects.
Applying this to a global scale, and most people have absolutely no idea if they would break laws in some foreign country just by going about their day.
