Nothing to hide, nothing to fear : )

When everything is illegal, nobody is innocent.

Nice reference!

Reference to what? Didn't I just coin it?! Aw, it sounded so good, too...

Not sure what you referred to directly, but GPT-4o gives me these two similar quotes:

"The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws." - Tacitus (Roman historian)

"Show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime." - Lavrentiy Beria (head of Stalin's secret police)

Ah yeah, the general sentiment was definitely "there are laws that everyone breaks every day, so they can always get you on something". Mostly because I remembered the anecdote about the USSR outlawing fax machines that no business could do without, so they could always charge any business with a crime.

I thought you altered the phrase spoken by the villain Syndrome in Pixar's "Incredibles" movie: https://youtu.be/GYmHYQPaHaw?feature=shared

Ah, no, I didn't even remember this, but it's close.
