Fuck that asshole.
She should be probed for every crime imaginable
I am once again condemning the UK for building a surveillance state beyond what Orwell could truly envision.
Yeah things are really looking bleak over there. That plus their recent attacks on free speech (you can get arrested for supporting "Palestinian action") paint a very dystopian picture for the future of the UK
Did you ever bother to look into why Palestine Action was singled out? How one of their members assaulted someone with a hammer or something?
You can support Palestine without supporting that group, lol.
Isn’t collective punishment a violation of human rights, according to the UN?
Would you say the same if one member of a group was a Nazi? No, you'd rightly assume they're all nazis.
Nice ASSumption. Actually, yeah, I’d say exactly the same. Human rights are human rights. Fortunately, it isn’t up to people like you to decide who gets them
Guy who wants to not ban groups that assault people doesn't want people to have the right to decide and vote on human rights. The irony.
Since they’re rights, they are inherent. You don’t get to vote on them
Or something...
Glad you came prepared.
I'm sorry is this an Internet message board or a thesis? Do you're own research I'm not your fucking mother.
Go on then, give me some reasons? Or you just someone who reads too much "news"?
Points at headline
Yes. Literally Orwellian.
Sarah Jones is someone who should live in fear, and the fact she doesn't, is the real danger to society.
Eh, at this point I had "cyberpunk dystopia" on my bingo card.
We're about 60% there in the UK.
UK gov saw V for Vendetta and thought it was a guide for oppression
Kier Starmer is an authoritarian twat who is setting up some scary surveillance shit to hand to, sadly, Reform. Who will be much worse.
That is horrid. I would never leave my house without a mask. Fuck that.
Or maybe invest in some of those anti surveillance full face masks.
They ain't doing this for YOUR benefit or protection.
Wait till you read about gait recognition. Add that to data streams consolidated by Palantir tracking your gps via cell phone, purchase tracking, and they don’t really need to see your face. They can still track you by your cars registration plates with enough accuracy.
They will have a 90% tracking rate regardless of your face being behind a mask.
Avoiding surveillance will not be allowed, mark my words.
Step 1: Wear a mask + sunglasses.
Step 2: Destroy them.
Don't forget to walk funny
Probably throw a pebble in one shoe should work, or at least help.
And cover your ears, ears are as unique as fingerprints.
Masking will be outlawed as the next step.
This shit is unacceptable and needs to be banned the same as the EU.
Creepy
Wasn’t this basically the plot of Spectre? Where is Bond when we need him.
