This explanation is perfectly fine. We DO have a right to privacy. Unfortunately there will be people out there that hold onto, "If you don't do anything wrong then you don't have anything to worry about." And your explanation doesn't sufficiently counter that.
Being placed near a crime scene, being accused of an act of terrorism = up to 30 days in jail *without charge* (This is UK and our government considers that LOW!). Innocent or not I don't see my family for a month and likely cause problems for my employer. Personally I'd rather not be a suspect in that when I'm entirely innocent, this is something an innocent man *can* worry about, when it comes to privacy invasion. Ben Franklin once said some wise words, which I'm sure anyone in this debate is familiar with. He wasn't wrong. -- With Regards..
