European Parliament report on mass surveillance.

Yes, they're a little pissed off. Many of the European Union states have already lived under a system of constant surveillance, suppression of rights and spying, so they have intense feelings about it, where as the so-called open societies in America, Canada, Australia and Britain continue on in a fog of disbelief and an 'I'm doing nothing wrong' attitude.

Are we cool with spy agencies doing illegal actions to watch us? Are we okay because they're after someone else? Are we acceptable to incarcerating people without charges and a court of law? Are we ignoring secret court decisions and actions? Are we allowing ourselves to slip into a monitored society without the standards of freedom so many fought for in our recent history?



Are we past the tipping point?

  1. Are we past the tipping point?
    I certainly hope not. I do nothing wrong but do not want someone watching every move I make.
