I think the basic problem is that while back then we had a low water mark of privacy, the Soviet Union, that the west wanted to stay above as a point of pride, these days we have none.
- kalleboo 9y agoWell we have China, but western leaders seem to be more prone to using the Chinese Great Firewall as a leading example than a bad example.
