I suppose that with that line of thought you people would think that the best way to react to car thieves is to leave the keys in the ignition of your prised Landrover [bigwhistle]
Close! But the imposition of fines should you fail to secure your vehicle when you leave it parked, or are more than 3m from the vehicle while keys are in the ignition - that’s a real and better example of notional lost freedoms.Quote:

Ask yourself: How likely would I have been to stand up and openly criticise the Government 20 years ago, as opposed to now, and how likely would I be, once the Government has all of these systems in place?
It may well be that the Parliament has the very best intentions and that they would never use that power against you.
After all we haven't seen any evidence of political corruption yet, have we?
Then there is the second tier of Government: Centrelink, Boarder Force, Police, ASIO, DOTARS or what ever they're called these days, (They're always changing their names, aren't they?). All if them have the ability to single out an individual and render him feckless. Of course they have never done that, have they? They never would would they?
And stop calling them terrorists because 'one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter'. It glamorises what they have done and inspires others. Just call them what they are - ****ing murdering scum.Quote:

Not to mention also that it is intended to give the information to Private Security Firms, whom we all know are beyond reproach.
How can the data from CCTV cameras be at all useful to a hacker?Quote:

Cameras are not just cameras anymore you know. Raw footage is almost useless in bulk but what is valuable is sophisticated analysis of the data. Once the footage has been crunched and ordered it's worth nicking.Quote:
