Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Military Surveillance: Hearings Before the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-Third Congress, Second Session on S. 2318; April 9 and 10, 1974
As I contemplate this computerized society we have entered upon, I am reminded Of the passage in Lewis Carroll's Through the Look ing Glass where the king raves: The horror Of that moment I shall never, never forget it. You will, though, says the Queen, if you don't make a memorandum of it. A democratic society must be compassionate as well as just. It must be willing to forget past indiscretions and allow its citizens to begin again. But the queen is right. Beginning anew is much more difficult when there are memorandums of the past to live down and contend with.
