The state has NO right to know about: your finances, your movements, your shopping habits, your online activity, your health, your connections, your religion.

🚨🇬🇧 Surveillance in the UK is rising as it plans to roll out mandatory #digitalIDs for all its citizens.

❌ Infringes on your privacy

❌ First step to creating a surveillance state
