That is indeed how 99% of people think. It is the "I have nothing to hide"/"nobody is interested in me" equivalent. 

I would expect the paranoid crypto anarchists to get a severe allergic reaction to giving up that kind of power even if they do not require the freedom right now. 

I would not argue against having a decoy government phone to keep up the appearance of being a normal citizen. That is not my level of paranoia though...
