British the most spied-on people in western world
Oct 30th
BRITISH people are now more spied upon by their political leaders than any other population in the free world, according to an official report.
The linkage of databases and surveillance systems mean people are now having their movements tracked, habits profiled and photograph taken hundreds of times a day. The findings, in a report compiled on behalf of Richard Thomas, the information commissioner, raised concerns that Britain is “waking up in a surveillance society”.
Thomas said: “Many of these schemes are public sector driven, and the individual has no choice over whether or not to take part. People are being scrutinized and having their lives tracked, and are not even aware of it.
“They don’t know, for instance, that a record is kept of every Internet site they visit. They don’t realize that when identity cards come in, there will be a record of their movements and every time they have engaged with any public service.”
And if you want to know something even more scarier than that,then go to Daily Mail and reat this.
