Oh dear, oh dear

I'm surprised to see no comments on this article. Indeed I have also been surprised at the lack of comment on similar subjects (on ZDNet) in the past.

It's only by speaking out and acting now, before it's too late, that we have any chance of infuence. Otherwise we are just sleep walking into a society of total surveillance and total control.

Apart from that, I have discovered from past experience that an organisation cannot offer us a satisfactory service and, at the same time, police us. These are mutually incompatible activities.
