"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."
Thought Police - 1984, George Orwell

In the UK as individuals we seem to be under increasing scrutiny from Government and Big Business.  Our personal privacy is under attack and everything we do seems to be recorded using new technology – from big brother cameras on the street to government mandated ISP tracking, to Phorm, to ANPR tracking as you drive your car.

This site aims to bring you the latest stories where our civil liberties and personal privacy are under attack.
