EU Surveillance Studies Disclosed By Pirate Party

Posted by timothy on from the vee-simply-vish-ztu-observe-you dept.

Spliffster writes "The German Pirate Party has disclosed some secret documents on how the EU is planning to monitor citizens. The so called INDECT Documents describe how a seamless surveillance could (or should) be implemented across Europe. The use of CCTV cameras, the Internet (social networks), and even the use of UAVs are mentioned as data sources. Two of the nine documents can be downloaded from the German Pirate Party's website (PDFs in English)."

    I wonder if forcing every single human being to read George Orwell's 1984

    I think we should force everybody. Of course, to be really sure they read it, they should do it in front of a camera. Moreover, the knowledge from the book has to be refreshed every now and then. Perhaps we should print some "Read your 1984 daily" flyers. Or force everybody to read at least a page every evening in bed. Of course, to be really sure they do it, we install cameras in their bedroom. I wonder what should do to those refusing to read it?

    Wasn't there a draft at the time of the Vietnam war?

    That's why I like Slashdot's story reminder feature, which usually kicks in a day or two later, just as I'm forgetting about the story.
