Fred Reed: The Eye of Sauron

“What difference will it make to live in a country in which the government knows everything whatever about everybody, and few safeguards against abuse exist? For most people, at first, probably not much. At first. But for people the government doesn’t like, a lot. Reporters, writers, whistle-blowers, activists, dissidents.  And we are all vulnerable. Knowledge, as someone said, is power. Few of us have spotless lives, or want them.
Things have already reached the point at which writers of my acquaintance, who do not have the power of the Washington Post behind them, have stopped criticizing the government.”
