Are you czech by any chance ? I think it's a great place and completely understand why your people would be against government surveillance. The days of asking random people for IDs just to make sure they aren't spies still aren't forgotten there.
- honzzz 13y agoYep. And thanks. And to be honest, I think that asking random people for IDs was the smallest thing. People from always-free countries do not realize how much authoritarian regimes damage society. It's not just that some people became victims of the regime. Maybe the worst thing (at least in my opinion) is that society in an authoritarian regime is set in such ways that the system rewards dishonesty and cowardice and the most unscrupulous people get to the top... and stay there even after the regime falls.
