Yes, exactly, that's what I'm talking about. Imagine a world where it's completely acceptable to post poop on Instagram, and people who don't want to look at it simply tick "don't display poop". The thing is, the "if you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to fear" argument IS true, under assumption that others would be understanding and compassionate to your intentions. Which is exactly the opposite of the legal/societal system we currently have.
What I'm trying to say is that the core issue is "people aren't trustworthy" and "we need privacy" is a bandaid on the former problem. If we manage to create a society where people are trustworthy, the need of privacy will disappear.
