How can a general young US citizen keep privacy today without being called into suspicion by means of "If you have nothing to hide then why not show what's inside?"

I've tried to understand a way to verbalize why that argument is a bad idea, however, I just don't have the words.

Also, any recommendations for a less "I'm watching you" PRISM/Echelon type experience? I know it's hard today but if there is a way to keep things like UI but allow for privacy, that would be great : )

That's fantastic!

How does the US view it though? I doubt it's that for privacy given how deep the NSA's hands go.

It's also great that Apple has framed it the same way, but do they actually put privacy first?

That's great! I'm glad to see privacy is becoming much more of an issue in people's minds!

You'de be surprised how many people would give the above argument but when you shoot back with that, they clam up or be like "That's not any of your business." Either that or someone who's really lost it will actually agree to it, trying to take a moral high ground.

I have the app and extensions installed, but they are much slower than the default safari on my phone. Maybe it's because I'm still on IOS 9? I hate the new UI of IOS 10 and IOS 11, if there was a mod to make the old UI stay but keep the other updates, I'd jump for it, if it worked.

Sure thing!

Thank you, I've never really seen a PR team like this that is super responsive so it's a great feeling! : D

That's great, given I have both an iPhone and an old iMac. Though, I'm trying to make a Hackintosh. Would the trackers on Windows cross over to Mac in that case? I think the answer is no.

Honestly, it's bad how many people justify the absolute loss of privacy in the name of safety from terrorists. Ever wonder why they don't publicly say how many attacks the TSA has stopped or how many the FBI has? (Granted, who would say that on the news anyway? : /)
