this isn't America [and i hope it doesn't become this] but if this doesn't seem new world order, brave new surveillance state, i can't tell you what is. eyes in the sky at all times, making people stay inside. lots of horror stories from China. Italy, it's a different culture to start with but they're pretty hardline too from what i gather. maybe it's specific areas and not the whole country? Beatifik, correct me if i'm wrong.
