Product Information Welcome to Snitch Culture, a surveillance society far more insidious and pervasive than anything George Orwell ever imagined. Elected officials from both U.S. political parties have spent decades building a vast domestic intelligence network to track every man, woman and child.
Check out: The US government's new high-tech surveillance systems, including the FBI's Carnivore Internet monitoring computer and the National Security Agency's spy- in-the-sky, ECHELON; efforts to turn America's children into informants with sophisticated snitch programs in the public schools, including the coming national WAVE American tip line; How informants are fueling the growing assets forfeiture scandal; The state's successful infiltration of the growing Anti-Globalization Movement; The role of private informant networks through history, from the early prohibition movements to the anti- Communist superpatriot groups of the 1950s to the so-called civil rights watchdog organizations of today.
