    “Why should I care about privacy? I have nothing to hide!”

    This is one of the reasons why privacy advocates continuously stress the importance of limiting your “digital identity” (as the quoted expert put it). The more information that exists about you online, the more vulnerable you are to data breaches and the resulting criminal activities. Do not trust governments and companies to keep your data safe - they have repeatedly shown they cannot do this. The threat mitigation needs to start with our behaviour online.
