I have heard people make that argument quite a few times. It's less common now than it used to be, but it still happens.

Huh? I'm not sure what you're asking for here. I don't tend to record conversations I have with people, and me trying to reconstruct conversations isn't really any more of an example that just saying I had the conversation.

I can point you to hundreds of examples of people arguing against the "nothing to hide" position. I have never seen the opposite. I do not think it exists.
