Any time I see people say "I don't see why I should care about my privacy, I've got nothing to hide" I think about how badly things can go if the wrong people end up in positions of power.

The classic example here is what happens when someone is being stalked by an abusive ex-partner who works in law enforcement and has access to those databases.

This ICE stuff is that scaled up to a multi-billion dollar federal agency with, apparently, no accountability for following the law at all.
