What will break the surveillance state?

5. Stop using technology?

I don't think it will make a difference. Back in the days of Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, government encouraged neighbors to spy on each other and children to spy on their parents. That's how Ann Frank and her family got ratted out. There was no technology back then like we know it today but any rogue government will find a way. The problem is getting people to admit that this is no better than what the Soviets and Nazis did back then or more recently what happened to the disappeared in Chile and Argentina. We need to prosecute them for this, to make them understand that this is not how a free and democratic government operates.
