[liberationtech] Swedish press question: How does surveillance change the citizen's behavior?

[Tom O]

To be honest you are probably asking the wrong crowd.

In my experience the way everyday society uses the internet probably hasn't
changed. For the most part 99% of the population use it the same as they
did before.

Confirmation bias is easy to find. The reality is most people haven't
changed, as sad as that is.
