With the recent issue of Wiretaps , and Congress could force ISPs to spy on us, it makes me think of the world shown in V for Vendetta and makes me think that that world might be us in the very near future, our greatest prize (Technology) could be our ultimate doom.

hey a V For Vendetta world might not be such a bad thing, okay? at least everyone would be kung-fu fighting in Guy Fawkes masks, and bald chicks are kind of hot.
LOL, but living in fear of the government and etc? what about that , are you ready to let your childern and grandchildern live a life which is primarly controlled by the direct actions of the government and the descions they make.

Spoiler: There is no V in real life,Enjoy your police state.61% of America wants it.
Im not talking about V , Or People Wearing Masks , im tlking about how insecure this world is getting day by day. Im talking about how mabey in 10-20 years we would have no privacy and privacy would be an untouched subject, something someone would teach in civics class or even history

Do you not mean a "1984" world? Damn education system not teaching kids what they need to know

Being able to freeze your assets for no particular reason other than say: you may leave the county (not country or state) whilst on an ACD....
Monitoring your telephone habits...
Having a choice between paying the dodgy $100 ticket (and being Guilty) or spending $1000's and months of time in the court system (to be "Not Guilty") ...
Taking your Biometrics on exit or entry to the country...
Voting via machines shown to be insecure and built by companies that publically state they will "deliver" certain states for a particular party prior to elections...
Diluting protections so as to allow people to be held without trial for extended periods...
Allowing torture and detention camps, despite worldwide condemnation...
....are not signs of a "Police State".
Im sure many of the Americans and Brits on here will be able to explain how this is so.. unfortunatly i cant.
