Well keeps people from coming to my house and harassing me simple because my politics are different. There’s that.
Government could entrap me based on data they get from me, or I could be deceived or be part of a targeted propaganda. Like I could see the propaganda but with the data they get it could be tailored it so that it’s more convincing to me.
Also just having privacy avoids scrutiny. Maybe I just want to watch an anime and not have it part of a recommendation algorithm or ads if I didn’t block them.
I’m so glad I avoid that
