The video surveillance caught the bad guys but a dragnet gets a pat on the back for 26,000 violations of privacy.

This is one good story however it is presented with a narrative that seeds unquestionable support for warrantless surveillance.

702 is on the horizon, what will we choose? Privacy or security. There is no such thing as both. In this well painted narrative the answer is simple. Security. What about other narratives though?
