WHO NEEDS PRIVACY?
If you have got nothing to hide, whats the problem? This is a common question one hears talking about CCTV. And hey, even though there is no evidence that the 4.3 million CCTV cameras (one for every 14 people in Britain) deter or reduce the serious crime or terrorism they were initially justified with, they are still good to install a proper public order.
Imagine a world without dog fouling, illegal parking, littering and other forms of horrible anti-social behavior. 
Shouldnt we easily give up Privacy, one of those old fashioned civil liberties, to allow the state to make the country a prim and proper place? Or should we citizens actually be able to deal ourselves with the anti-social behavior which really bothers us, without calling for the state and police? And, do we actually feel different when we know the guy in the control room might be watching us? Do we spare in the presence of Big Brother the kisses or other things which make live livable?
Have your say.
