Imagine the nonsense reality show, "Big Brother crap" everyone is talking about these days. Imagine that, transforming into our everyday "real" life, thanks to an envisaged communication bill in the works to be tabled soon in Parliament. Everything you write or talk about my friend would be scrutinized and you may get into trouble.
I have wondered what might have led politician to contemplate bringing such a law in a country as peaceful as Namibia. It would make our life much more difficult because secrecy and privacy will become a thing of the past. I feel as a human being i'm entitled to my privacy and freedom of expression as enshrined in the constitution and why should "Big brother" watch what i do? Most of all, who watches over what "big brother" is doing? The intended bill is only meant to cause fear and society must join hands in condemning this law, for it serves no purpose but to suppress people's civil liberties.
