Comment on Britain is ‘omni-surveillance’ society, watchdog warns

You are the suspect. The police are there for you, to suspect and investigate you.

Ever read Judge Dredd comics? In one old one the Judges have the right to just walk into any citizen’s apartment and do a random search. Because there are so many laws, they always find something that’s illegal. One day the find a citizen with nothing contraband in their apartment. The rookie Judge wants to give the citizen a medal for being so upright, but Dredd triples the surveillance because only a really heinous monster would bother to keep their place so clean. [Of course, because it’s a comic, Dredd is right and the citizen is a Sov-City spy.]
