It's hard to believe now, but back in 2008, one of the big campaign issues for future President, Barack Obama was opposing the "Post 9/11 Surveillance State."

Well, even President Obama quickly became a convert, going to court at least three times to expand and keep secret the ubiquitous surveillance we all deal with daily.

Today, most of us seem to have come to believe that, "Privacy is overrated." At the least, there is no rightful expectation of privacy in any common, or public area.

It's sure made convicting criminals a lot easier. Take this case, as an example (https://abcnews-go-com.cdn.ampproject.org/…/woman-al…/story…). 25 y/o Cadesha Bishop pushed 74 y/o Serge Fournier off a bus in Las Vegas, after he admonished her over her verbally abusive behavior toward other passengers, telling her to, "be nicer."

Mr. Fournier later died from his injuries and Ms. Bishop has been charged with murder.

The Surveillance State has been steadily expanding and incidents like this are part of the justification for it.
