Terrorists are everywhere, comrades. Be afraid! Your neighbor, your grocer, that greasy punk that screwed up your wheel alignment, that swarthy guy over there! Anybody could be a terrorist! Think of the power of being able to inform on them!
In East Germany, they say, there was one full-time Stasi agent or informer for every 66 citizens. Counting part-timers like the people in this creepy PSA, it might have gone as high as one for every 6.5. East Germany eventually imploded, but it was a hell on earth while it lasted. These “iwatch” people (notice how I didn’t use an obscenity there?) seem to think it sounds like fun.
