The lessons of history have been forgotten.

the unibomber pointed out that improvements in technology lead to loss of liberty for common people. its not a very nice conclusion, but the guy was very smart. so far he seems to be right from what i have seen. the wealthy elite class of rulers always has the most access to the latest technology, and their power is predicated on controlling the masses. they lose their power if they don't hold on to it, so that even if there are good rulers, they are outcompeted by bad rulers.

I've been thinking about the unibummer a lot lately. He was so right so long ago.

Fortunately, governments are also losing their privacy.

UK, US and now Germany. It's as if someone kicked the hornets nest. This shit is getting Orwellian fast.

I get the same sense. Things are escalating at an increased rate. It seems they are either running out of time for something (agenda, NWO, comet, whatever) or they know they are losing grip and try to force this Orwellian nightmare down our throats, if need be.

Up until now most nations have known better than dropping the façade.

Alright. I already had plans to move abroad. If this comes trough I'm pretty sure that in the next few years I'll be gone. Any suggestions as to which country in europe isn't becoming a surveilance state? I heard Finland was pretty nice.
