George Orwell issued a warning.
He told us that freedom is too much taken for granted, that it needs to
be carefully watched and protected. His last word on the subject was a
plea to his readers: "Don't let it happen. It depends on you."

It is technology driving the capabilities, it is our government using
them ruthlessly: without letting us vote on it.
Never before could someone walk up to you and number you by scanning
your fingerprints. A number that is yours and yours alone.
You have been numbered for all time.
No ID card needed once portable fingerprint scanners are deployed all over!
If the government suddenly ordered all citizens to be numbered with an
indelible invisible ink on their arms so they were permanently numbered;
so law enforcement could scan them at will: there would be a revolt.
Yet that is what is happening.
Fingerprints, scanned into a computer, are a number.
The number is inescapably yours.
Modern technology means they don't have to put the number on you, they can
read it off of you by minutely examining your body.
And: it is the NSA driving the fingerprint-rollout of the national ID card.
