Copenhagen's Secret Service

Those who use Copenhagen's metro service these days (or go to the movies in Denmark) cannot avoid seeing a ridiciouls advertisement clip that Copenhagen municipality is wasting my tax-receipts on. A serious man knocks on a door of a surprised citizen, who is told how many pizza boxes and plastic glasses he has thrown on the streets for his entire life. The point? To make people feel bad about the city of Copenhagen FAILING to clean the streets of this filthy city. Yes, make people feel bad because a government spy has been accumulating information about everyday behaviour. Yuk!

A THANK YOU FROM A READER HERE IN CANADA.
MANY THANKS FOR OFFERING TO SHARE WITH THE READER TRULY PROFOUND INSIGHTS ABOUT SUCH SUBSUMING ISSUES AS STATISM.
THERE IS A CRYING NEED FOR THIS KIND OF OVERVIEW AND FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE AND BALANCED APPROACH EMPLOYED IN YOUR BLOG.
MORE THAN EVER WE ALL NEED TO STAY GROUNDED AND AWAKE IN ORDER TO BE OPEN TO SUCH AN APPEALING VOICE OF COMMON SENSE. YOUR WORDS CAN MAKE SUCH A DIFFERENCE, A CHANCE TO RECOGNISE ONCE AGAIN THAT THIS KIND OF SHARED PERCEPTION ALSO ACTS AS ENCOURAGEMENT FOR THE READER, AN INCITEMENT TO HANG IN, TO VALUE ONE'S OWN INDEPENDENT THOUGHTS, ESPECIALLY NOW, AS HUMANITY FACES DOWN THE SURGING HUMAN CYCLICAL POTENTIAL FOR A NEW ROUND OF WHAT COULD BECOME VERY DARK TIMES AHEAD.
