| Abstract | Introduction The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of issues of mass surveillance, the subject that Edward Snowden has so spectacularly brought to world attention. Many readers will have been following the revelations closely, but general public understanding seems fairly confused and imprecise. Indeed, popular understanding of the Snowden revelations amounts to something like: ‘Everyone is being spied on all the time’, while the typical talk back radio host reply is: ‘I don't care if someone spies on me. If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to hide’. There is also a perception that ‘It's always gone on’ and ‘everyone does it anyway’. All of these positions are wrong. |
