We are under unprecedented levels of surveillance, with drones, street cameras (possibly with automatic face and gait identification), credit card transactions monitored, phone location logged via cell towers, cars via license plate scanners, pervasive internet monitoring by numerous actors, etc. And that's all -before- someone is actively targeted by the police, which can result in bugs placed in the home, car, and on computers, recording conversations, recording passwords as they're typed in through compromised keyboards or usb cables, or using telescopic lens and a camera, or one of those fancy through-wall-radars. Forensic science has also advanced, allowing traces of suspicious chemicals to be detected on a person, their DNA identified anywhere they shed dead skin cells, Almost the only scrap of privacy left is due to encryption (easily circumvented by planting bugs), yet they want to strip away even that, claiming we have so much more privacy than ever before, that it's making police work impossible??
