Surprise! The gov't already has access to your phone and computer records. Stalinism is alive and well.
I know this. My point is that most people object to the government eavesdropping on their phones and computers, even though the government's justification is that if you have nothing to hide, then this shouldn't bother you.
I don't have anything particularly noteworthy on my phone, but I don't need someone questioning why I had time to advance 3 levels in Candy Crush Saga yet didn't have time to return their call, or some other similarly trivial issue. I feel that when are you having discussions like that with a partner, it can only go downhill...

The idea that "I have nothing to hide, so go ahead and look" is so very Anti American and UnConstitutional it beyond belief.
These threads always get people so riled up. This is one area where the couple really needs to be on the same page - whatever page that may be - to avoid major issues. My husband and I are on the same page. That's all that really matters. It works for us.

Agreed. I think that there is plenty of room in a relationship for a couple to express polar opposite views, but this is probably not one of them.
For those of you in a committed relationship, married, long term BG/GF, whatever; what your policy on your cell phone? I heard some lady the other day talk about how she wanted to see her partner's cell phone, I thought to myself "there is no effing way." What are your thoughts?
So what is in your phone that you wouldn't want your significant other to see?
My fiance is always messing around in my phone and vice versa. Same with our computers, lap tops, tablets.
We have nothing to hide from one another. If we did, we may behave as you are.

Mature individuals who are in a trusting relationship don't ask to see each other's phones.

I agree with you, even though I don't know your reason.
I believe everyone deserves some degree of personal privacy. And that doesn't mean they're hiding something or doing anything wrong.
I told my bf my passwords but I don't think he even listened or would ever look in my phone nor computer.
I don't know his cell password but he never hides when he types it in so I could just look and remember it. I am burning to see whom he texts to all day but I stay strong and won't snoop.

I agree.
My phone, like my computer, is mine. That means I use it, no one else, without asking me first, and if someone needs to use it, I reserve the right to ask the person why and decline the request if I feel it is inappropriate.
Looking through it just to look through it is inappropriate. I can't imagine any man being obnoxious enough to ask, to be honest with you. Likewise, I would never ask someone I trusted.
For those who like to act all self-righteous and say things like if one has nothing to "hide," one will let one's spouse or partner look through one's technology, I say, yes, I do have things to keep private: Conversations with my friends and family, purchases and transactions, and photos (like the one a friend sent me of her bruises when her ex-husband hit her) that are none of his business. If a man can't accept that, out he goes.
Boundaries, people. They're good things to have.
