Take Jane: a video from NO2ID on the dangers of Britain's burgeoning surveillance state

The UK NO2ID group has produced a fantastic video about one of the dangers of Britain’s new database state: Take Jane tells the story of a woman whose vengeful ex- is able to follow her around because she has to update the national ID database every time she moves, and any database that has that many people who are allowed to consult it will have someone her ex-husband can bribe to let him know where she’s living at all time.
