Re: Security Theatre and/or Snooping

However if you only put in laws etc to help detect the very best, then you miss out on opportunities to catch the low hanging fruit

It's very easy to catsh the low-hanging fruit: just lock up everyone. That has the additional benefit of catching clever and hard-to-find criminals too.

There's a little collateral damage to the idea, but what does that matter in the War On Terror?
