Having private information? No we think otherwise (2,3,4)

I believe the answer is:

in the know

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'having private information?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'no we think otherwise' is the wordplay.
'otherwise' is an anagram indicator.
'no'+'we'+'think'='nowethink'
'nowethink' with letters rearranged gives 'IN THE KNOW'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for in the know that I've seen before include "Informally, having inside information" , "well-informed" , "Privy to special information" , "Aware" , "Possessing private information" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
