[privacy] 'If you don't have anything to hide, then why are you worried about... ?'

I'm looking for a dissertation that I remember reading a while back
that completely & analytically dissects the argument that you should
simply "give in" to privacy erosion and surveillance if you "don't
have anything to hide" -- does anyone recall where I might have read
this or perhaps who authored it? It was a fine piece of work.

I think most of it was regarding the issues & spirit of the 4th
Amendment of the U.S. Constitution:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses,
papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures,
shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable
cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing
the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

Thanks,
