Laws and trends happen just slow enough so your average person doesn't notice the change.
Look at the AML regulations banks have in the west and how little we're talking about before it's reported to some central reporting agency. Supposedly to protect against criminals etc when ironically the biggest crooks are the bankers etc
Take things like Twitter, you'd be mental to publish anything semi controversial on it, Christ even opinions are getting people sent to prison.
We're seeing increasing trends of people being arrested and sent to prison for some stupid comments they've posted on Twitter without thinking.
