Yeah, that's the root of the problem, I think.

It's easy to sell people that "we just need this one more bit of access to your private data, it helps us stops paedophiles and terrorists", but each step takes us further down a bad path.

I'm sure everybody would agree that having full camera surveillance inside every UK home is too far, but no oversight at all is also bad.

There is a point along that line where society would say "no, that's enough", but successive governments have realised that they can slowly push that point further right and nobody seems to notice, or care.
