“One of the arguments in favor of mass surveillance as presented in this video is that it is ‘legal.’ But the kinds of legalities being enshrined into law in this modern era are nothing like the natural law that was supposed to be the foundation of Western jurisprudence. The idea that a community would easily or logically adopt an ordinance that mandated that all inhabitants share every single communication with an overriding authority responsible for their ‘safety’ is a doubtful argument to make, in our view. Thus, it is not ‘natural’ – and bound to cause more problems than it solves in the end.”
