RE: EU asset register now officially announced. / EU-Vermögensregister nun offiziell angekündigt.

I doubt that there will be enough resistance to prevent that law, because I fear that still too many people don't care at all about freedom and privacy (especially as long as they think to be not wealthy enough to be directly affected from any measures), plus they believe the narrative that surveilling and controlling everybody in a prophylactic way would be really necessary to be able to fight against criminals.

Way too often I hear sentences like "Who has nothing to hide, has nothing to fear, so why should I be worried if the state knows everything about me?". Sometimes I think that the same people who would feel very annoyed and disturbed if I stood behind them when they were sitting on a bench together with their partners, would allow the state happily to install cameras and microphones in their bedrooms because they have "nothing to hide". :-)
