Ahh the 'ol 'if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear' fallacy.

There's thousands of papers written on this exact fallacy by professors all over the world (my favorite being this one: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=998565) and there's internet articles about the same subject (again, favorite being: http://www.wired.com/politics/security/commentary/securitymatters/2006/05/70886).

My favorite answer though:


Shouldn't you be down at St. Pauls? And while you're at it do us all a favour and stay down there.


If I'm not doing anything wrong, then you have no cause to watch me.

Really, 3800+ posts and you still don't know how to quote and then comment on it?

Here, this is for you.

Also to the people that don't know what a conspiracy is (and use it falsely here) check out this news link dated yesterday:

.....but they werent watching you think

I think its called proactive policing (although in this case, it was by a Police Solcial club, so there was either an event with the potential for trouble going on, or it was training). Does this mean a Bobby on the beat is watching you also? As far as I can tell its pretty much the same thing - proactive policing.

Lets face it, we read posts about the Police never doing enough, so why would they go out of their way to watch someone who hasnt done anything wrong raftl

As for a conspiracy theory, spend enough time on the internet and you can find information on just about anything.

For instance: did you know that the Apollo moon landing was a hoax? That 9/11 was an inside job? That flouride is a mind control substance designed to keep humans dumb and under control?
The problem with conspiracy theorists is they ask you to demolish your mental programming, but demand you replace it with their own.

The result is to exchange one unproven worldview for another. And unfortunately, basing your decisions on the conviction of “knowing” is responsible for many of the world’s ills.

The only real truth is that it’s impossible to “know” anything. And the only real method of making decisions is through probability.

I should note though that I didn't say anyone was watching me (if that's what started the foil hat thing you guys need to read my post a bit closer) I used that example to counter Ste's argument earlier in the thread which was something like "why do you mind being watched, do you have something to hide?"

Sorry ex0 - I just read your comment as someone was watching you in the context it was being used sorry

I also guess the thread as strayed off topic, as its moved from a £13k Police eqpt loss, to a big bother thread....
