Since Klaus/WEF has a socially and fiscally left-leaning view of things, a useful way to respond to their support of total transparency and no privacy is to be like: "Cool, cool. Imagine you happen to be gay in Saudi Arabia, or a Uyghur in China. Just trying to live your life, doing your own thing. You have nothing to hide, right? Total transparency is good, right?” image Because the funniest thing about socialist/left authoritarian viewpoints regarding transparency, is that fascist/right authoritarian viewpoints would love that too. It's the horseshoe theory of politics in action. And when you compare the socialist left to being fascist right, or the fascist right to being socialist left, it’s just funny to see their responses.

The key issue being - "Nothing to hide" from what? Who lays down the parameters of what is acceptable, outside of which keeping hidden would be the only alternative ?
I think the best way to deal with him and similar authoritarians is simply to ignore him, not to give him any reactions to his pure provocations. I don't care what he thinks about anything really.
Why do you need examples of other minorities in other countries that you probably don't know too much about? Isn't there enough stuff happening in your own country that could be named as examples?
