        I don’t know if you are serious, but the idea that people have nothing to hide comes from Nazi Germany. Also, lgbtq+ people may need to hide from their family without being cut from communities, just to give an example.

          The source of an idea doesn’t change its value.

          If my family didn’t accept the fact that I’m aroace, I would forget about them and change my life.

          Openness solves all the problems that privacy solves, and does so better.

            For a philosophical or political idea, I think yes, the source matter. The dispariton of the state ain’t the same between an anarchist and a nazi (they were, too), because it will have an impact on the mean you want to do it.

            But your family accepted you, how about some transphobic parents for their kid, how would this play out in your book? Cut off from any support? Beatten up to shit because they looked at wiki trans? Sure, the more open the better,but right now this is not the situation.
