Sounds like something right out of 1984. Who is Oceania at war with again?

- arethuza 10y agoI fear making those kinds of "inferences" may one day soon get people in tangible trouble. Crimestop comrade, crimestop!
- brokenmachine 10y agoIt really is straight out of 1984. Never mind the fact that such surveillance has never stopped or even mitigated a terrorist attack. Nevertheless, this security theatre continues, at the expense of everyone's civil rights. It's sad and scary.
