No different than America's surveillance. We call it Democracy.

The Lives Of Others, if anything is trying to make us conscious of an evil that is present in our current world, Surveillance.
If this is a Democracy then why would we allow such a state of things? This is no police state like East Germany. It has only led to pettiness amongst the masses. Pettiness and spying go hand in hand.
There is only one direction with this technology and that is to make sure we are behaving properly according to the political minds that run the show.
The problem is that we all pay for it. But that's a Democracy. What's wrong with us?
