According to what logic? Why would I not have to be worried just because I havent done anything wrong?
Bad things happen to good people. People in power abuse that power. Lifes a bitch.
These are things that cannot be ignored and regardless of how innocent I am giving up my freedom due to some old cliche thrown out by those same people who want to fuck me over is just stupid.
If I havent done anything wrong I shouldnt HAVE to give anyone anything.

The authorities cannot randomly demand data/keys in the same way they cannot search your property without the necessary warrant. As the legislation stands at present you are not being asked to give up any of your "freedom". I'm not particularly worried about these powers in the same way I'm not worried about the police having the power to get a warrant and search my house.
Therefore, my logic is, if you are worried, you either believe that the government is out to get you, or you have something to hide.
