Once upon a not so long ago it didn't burn me up at all. Then it burned me up a lot... but these days it doesn't burn anywhere near as much. I realise there's plenty of time... I realise that there are people who want something done about it... I realise what needs to be done about it... I realise that the voting populous have little choice as to what they can vote for... I realise that you are a minority and that all it will take a little education to show just how much of a minority you are. So yes, it burns me up, but not as much as it used to.

Oh for pity's sake guys, wake up and look around you at the safe benign life you have. I think Oscar has already expressed the reality of how that life is possible.
The law changes are to clarify the rights and obligations of the SIS and GCSB, and to provide better oversight. If National was not doing this, Labour would. That is because all of our political parties - except maybe the Greens - accept that spying is a necessary requirement for the security of our society.
I don't like it either but you cannot have a safe civil society without rules (laws) and boundaries. Its all very clever for we keyboard warriors to be brave and exaggerate fears of Big Brother but if your wife/parent/child was killed in a terrorist incident which could have been detected, you'd be on TV screaming about why the govt let it happen.
And yet the Boston bombings happened. I'm curious as to this security of our society thing you speak of. When has it ever been so unsecure? I'm sure the vast amount of terrorist activity that takes place in NZ today necessitates such a response.
Did you see the article from the UK where SOCA is holding the names of 102 individuals that are guilty of fraud... but they haven't done anything about it for 5 years and these guys have ruined the lives of thousands upon thousands of people. They have the evidence, as they've locked up 4 of the private investigators, yet they have done nothing about it. And you think that we need protection from terrorism? You may have noticed that a couple of whistleblowers (at least a couple) are being chased and persecuted because govts have broken the law, yet nothing happens. The only thing NZ doesn't have that the rest of the world has, is terrorism.
Even with all of our "rules" we're not civil, especially further up the chain. So get rid of the "riles" and we'll "police" ourselves at a community level. Ya don't know until you've tried it... and you wreak of fear.

these guys pretty much said the same......Stasi
so did and still do these guys.............KGB
and also these guys.......and we know what that led too............Gestapo
fact is the police already has ample means for surveillance, however they have to provide due cause, well at least they had to provide something more that a he said she said, and their god is different then mine.
fact is also that once the power to "totaler ueberwachung" is given, it is hard to ever rescind it. Frankly the government has to make a better case before it starts collecting information on all of us, and if it does not concern yourself, because you are one of the good ones that never will do anything against the state, think of those that will come after you. what country would you like to leave them?
