  1. Is it just me, one thing people seem to ignore over and over in this whole debate – is this type of surveillance does not stop terrorism. For that you actually need human intelligence. Bodies, real human beings on the ground.

    • True that is, first the government put up the problem and then come back to place more restrictive harm upon us, and erosion of our rights and democracy, and their use to take way our freedom of free speech along with assembly with others without any repercussion from an association with those government may not with association with.

      It is our right to decide not Governments role, as we saw National roundly discount Helen Clark’s “Nanny state” but this Government has taken Nanny state to a new high now with more and more control upon us all.
