The Innocent Have Nothing To Fear.

Right?

From The Guardian

You see, they're not storing the actual CONTENT of your phone calls, text messages, emails, and the webpages you view, it's just the connections. You called your mum on such & such day, and they wrote down the time. That's all. It's so we can track whom the terrorists are ringing up, you see? It's for your safety, after all. You are for safety, aren't you? You remember 7/7 don't you? You're not a terrorist are you? We're only storing date/time/connection information, so don't worry!

For now.

What's the objection? The innocent have nothing to fear, right? Are you trying to hide something comrade citizen?

More news from the place where England used to be... coming soon to a police state near you. Soon with CONTENT storage! Get a copy of 1984 while you still can, and read it. Then make your children read it. And see what you can do to protest this sort of thing to your legislature.

Good luck.
