Wow, and I thought it was bad in the US

I saw this on /. and it simply stunned me.

Suspicious behaviour on the tube

The whole “not making eye contact with the police” reason, that really freaked me out. Basically if someone is looking at their watch when they go into a tube station, they could be arrested. That is a really scary thought there. I think they’ve crossed the line from protective to paranoid.

Just because you have the power to do something doesn’t mean you should jump all over some guy because he’s a bit more tech savvy then you… ugh.

anyway, back to work.
