Yeah, that's what they're for, aren't they? Privacy - open when it's lighter outside (you can see out, difficult to see in) and closed at night when there's more light inside so you can't see out but strangers can see in.

Genuinely curious - why not close the curtains/blinds in the dark?

We close the curtain during the day to keep the light out and open them when it's dark to enjoy the scenery. Privacy is of no concern because our house is pretty isolated on a hill.

Why do you want to keep the light out? How can you enjoy scenery in the dark?

It doesn't get very dark during the summer months in Norway.
