White Rose • The RFID Scanner

White Rose is a protest blog collective focusing on civil liberties in the UK.

It was set up to point a finger at the erosion of personal freedom in the UK.
Government's active measures introduce new means of control such as identity cards and surveillance cameras, the passive measures such as weakening of double jeopardy and presumption of innocence.

The arguments

Most measures regarding security and crime control do not work.
Their effect is restriction of 'honest citizen's' privacy and freedom.
Alternative solutions to the security and privacy 'trade-off'

The resistants

Gabriel Syme and Perry de Havilland of Samizdata.net to rally the Anglosphere behind the UK.
White Rose contributors are those bloggers and non-bloggers who oppose restrictions on personal liberties.
