"TV Series from
2008: Preparing people for surveillance society and
biometric ID "
I just saw that there was a television series which is about an
hour and a half and has 5 episodes on PBS. It is
called Masterpiece Contemporary: The Last Enemy and it was
made in 2008.
"A
mathematical genius takes a wild ride through the boundless
paranoia of a surveillance society on The Last Enemy, a
five-part thriller set in England in the not too distant future.
Scripted by award-winning writer Peter Berry (Prime Suspect 6:
The Last Witness), The Last Enemy launches the first season of
MASTERPIECE CONTEMPORARY on PBS. Biometric ID cards, ubiquitous
security cameras, and "Total Information Awareness," a program
to give authorities unlimited access to personal data, have
turned Britain into a virtual police state. And it turns out
that Big Brother has even bigger plans for keeping track of
citizens."
