and only an ill informed sheep would trust governments with such power .

your blase attitude Calvin is the very reason why tyranny flourishes .

read a huxley( "people will learn to enjoy their servitude"), g orwell, b russell (impact of science on society)

you use the "if youve nothing to hide ,nothing to fear" axiom , but do you press for the same dictum for government and police ?
it seems this move to greater transparency only goes one way .
see here for example where in uk it will be against the law for photographing police ! Taking photos of police officers could be considered a crime
