Kinda makes you wonder what's in their bedroom they're so concerned about being uncovered. I'm all for privacy as a right,but people don't usually go balls to the wall on their bedroom privacy just to not be seen changing. People wont even assume just regular sex stuff. People will assume terrorist plots or a murder dungeon or your mom.

Privacy is privacy is privacy. There's no need to justify it. Desiring it isn't an indicator of any wrongdoing. The second you are okay with literally every aspect of your existence being completely public, and I mean all of it, is the second your statement holds any ground.

I get your example, and agree with the premise that "if you have nothing to hide..." is never a good argument, but if someone had security cameras surrounding/within their house, and 4 different locks on their bedroom door, and then a high quality safe in the bedroom, I would absolutely think there's something more than sex toys in there. That's still never a valid basis to search their stuff, but if there was nothing significant in there, that would feel odd.

I completely disagree. It may feel excessive, but my only thought would be "there's someone who cares about privacy." We only assume this stuff is weird because we've indirectly encouraged only weirdos to do these things. If we instead normalize it as just part of home security, like locking your doors, then it's just another thing careful people do.

What if I find enjoyment in cryptography and privacy as a hobby?

This is what we call Bias.

Great point and I agree. That's why my door is locked, but not locked with 8 deadbolts, a security camera, and booby traps.
