Nothing to hide, nothing to fear is a pretty well understood fallacy (http://www.computerweekly.com/blogs/the-data-trust-blog/2009...) (which im kinda sad to see on HN).

As for patterns and keywords, your "guarantee" is pretty shallow and baseless. A reasonable time i guess to quote Niemöller: First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Sorry, I don't quite understand how sending data over public networks and expecting to be monitored (either by government or corporate entities) equates to the rise of the nazis.

Kinda sad to see parallels made between these two on HN.
