I'm bit worried, do You mean what will spread, gov and company greed, or citizen disobedience?
I won't delude anyone for hunger for power and money will only grow while eating. But citizens fighting for their freedom, uhm... well... sure, there is always breakpoint, when society will explode and do fight... but so far, it looks like, greed do 10 steps front, society explode, and greed do 1 step back, all calm, and greed do next 10 steps forward, another protest, another 1 step back, another chill, and next 10 steps...
i meant all the draconian bullshit the UK government is doing. It's GOING to spread. A matter of when, not if.
No matter, if another countries will get inspired by UK directly, or develop hard laws on their own, but agree, they will try.
