Big Brother Alive and Well In the U.K.

Great Britain, the first home of Big Brother, is now tracking every car on the road!
This scares the crap out of me:

Britain is to become the first country in the world where the movements of all vehicles on the roads are recorded. A new national surveillance system will hold the records for at least two years.

Using a network of cameras that can automatically read every passing number plate, the plan is to build a huge database of vehicle movements so that the police and security services can analyse any journey a driver has made over several years.



This sends my libertarian paranoia alert system to 'Orange' for those in the U.K.
