Why privacy matters if you have nothing to hide? Because you need privacy from people who want to exploit you for their own benefit. You potentially spend more money on products than others and are excluded from housing, credit or employment market places just because advertisers use information about you that puts you at a disadvantage. Privacy gives you freedom from this kind of speculation and exploitation.
