Watching the watchers watching us

I can’t figure out the British Government, you know. They spend years foisting off intrusive surveillance technology on us, telling us it’s for our own good, and then they announce that they’re going to launch an inquiry into the growing use of surveillance technology. Classic doublespeak, or just the left hand not knowing what the right is doing? But don’t laugh to hard, my American friends – looks like your powers-that-be have imported the automated vehicle licence plate recognition kit that our lot are so impressed with. Of course, if we have nothing to hide, we have nothing to fear, right?

 

Right?

One thought on “Watching the watchers watching us”

  1. The concept of privacy continues to morph and change and shrink. So, too, does the type of behavior for which you’re likely to be judged.

    A wash?
