奥威尔的预言：关于电子监控法逐渐转变的论述
Predicted by Orwell: A discourse on the gradual shift in electronic surveillance law
摘要：
在大多数国家的历史上，都发生过一次或多次由当权者或执法者进行非法电子监控的事件，其结果是国家与公民对立。媒体为了利润而耸人听闻地报道这些事件，但它们更经常地正确地表达了公众的关切。在这些时候，政客们通过提出新的立法而崛起，要么成名，要么声名狼借，公众被告知，新的立法将保护他们免受国家官员未来非法和无端入侵的事件。自这些保护性法律颁布以来，发生了两件事：据称技术进步阻碍了合法的调查，以及法律的变化，表面上看是为了便利起诉或防止儿童色情制品等公开谴责的罪行，但实际上却扩大了国家的权力，实际上削弱了以前颁布的保护措施。本报告审视了三个司法管辖区的人权立法，首先比较和对比了针对非法搜查和扣押提供的保护。通过确定与几种形式的电子监视和技术有关的立法变化，以及导致这些变化的情况，我们可以找到有效的保护高峰，并讨论导致所有三个国家的这些法律逐渐但普遍削弱的过程。我们经常被那些当权者转移注意力，忽视那些局外人的偏执狂，他们一直在用他们的紫色散文警告我们，老大哥正在看着。但是，如果我们关注最近在电子监控领域的立法变化的影响，我们可以清楚地看到，奥威尔式的反乌托邦已经在这里，我们正在生活。
英文摘要：
At some point in the history of most nations, one or more events of illegal electronic surveillance by those in power or law enforcement has occurred that has the effect of setting State against Citizen. The media sensationalise these incidents for profit, however they more often correctly express the concern felt by the general public. At these times politicians rise, either into fame or infamy, by proposing new legislation which the public is told will protect them by from future incidents of illegal and unwarranted invasion by officers of the state. Two things have occurred since these protective laws were enacted; technological advancement that is claimed has frustrated legitimate investigation, and changes in the law that are ostensibly presented as intending to facilitate the prosecution or prevention of a publicly decried offence, like child pornography, but which in context deliver expanded powers to the State, effectively weakening the protections previously enacted. This report looks at human rights legislation in three jurisdictions, starting from a position of comparing and contrasting the protections that are available from illegal search and seizure. By identifying legislative changes related to several forms of electronic surveillance and technology, and the situations that led to them, we can locate the effective peak of protection and discuss the processes that have led to a gradual yet pervasive weakening of those laws in all three nations. We are regularly diverted by those in power towards disregarding the paranoia of the outliers who have been warning us with their purple prose that big brother is watching. But if we focus on the effect of recent legislative changes in the area of electronic surveillance we can clearly see that the Orwellian dystopia is already here, and we are living it.
