Atomic Books: Snitch Culture: How Citizens Are Turned Into The Eyes And Ears Of The State : Jim Redden Literary Finds For Mutated Minds!

Details

Children turn their parents into the police on two-bit drug charges. Classmates tattle on one another to school officials. Friends rat each other out to the authorities. Political advocacy groups report suspected dissidents to the FBI. Employers hire undercover agents to spy on workers. Lawyers are forced to report clients who pay with cash to law enforcement agencies. Welcome to SNITCH CULTURE, a surveillance society far more insidious and pervasive than anything George Orwell ever imagined. Elected officials from both political parties have spent decades building a vast domestic intelligence network to track every man, woman and child. Includes a new introduction 'The Final Crackdown,' explaining how the War on Terrorism following the 9/11/01 attacks has increased government surveillance and a lack of civilian privacy and rights to an astonishing and unconstitutional degree.
