Google "bluefrog" and "zombie" and you'll see that a lot of people agree 
with Vanguard.

One blogger called them "voluntary zombies," which is a good descriptor.

Here in the US the government has gone to extraordinary lengths to "stop

infringing on well-established civil liberties - is not seen as a good

which one it is.
