    Maybe it’s time we started radicalising kids. Tell them the politicians took everything away, their games, their privacy, their future. It’s not false!

      By “our” they mean their own. Putting an identity to every internet connection will promptly shut down all dissent. We should expect to have no privacy in most of the world in a few years.
