That sounds a lot like, "If you don't have anything to hide, why do you need privacy?" I'm not trying to put words in your mouth (feel free to clarify if you feel its needed), but I feel like I hear the kind of thing you're saying fairly often.
"Never talk to the cops." Isn't just for people who are guilty. Same with talking to a lawyer. I would hesitate to hand over my personal information, moreso if I don't have faith in the institution it goes to. I hear so many stories about rape kits never getting processed and how difficult it is to convict on rape because it's mostly he-said she-said. I also think putting someone in the position of getting caught so they can maybe catch their rapist isn't a great way to reduce overall crime.
There are a bunch of examples where this plays out poorly and nobody has a fear of getting caught. Black people had higher vaccine hesitancy because of historical distrust[1]. The CIA used a Hepatitis B vaccination program as cover to collect DNA to find Bin Laden[2].
