Essential surveillance or intrusive snooping*? As governments around the world reacts to the attack of 11 September and their after-effects with new anti-terrorism legislation, opinion is divided over whether they are striking the right balance between individual privacy and national security.
The United States, Britain, France and Canada have each prepared such laws, claiming they are needed to track down people who have already committed terrorist acts and to tighten up security. But privacy and other advocacy groups complain that the laws give police and intelligence agencies excessive power to monitor communications, such as use of the Internet, by the population at large.
