Not having any trust your government will somewhat do the right thing for its people must be such mental burden. The world before cell phones was also one where people movement was incredibly easy to anticipate, a vast amount of people would have never traveled farther than a few gours by car from their birth place, buying online was an outlier and news sources could all be fully controled.
