A lot people have been wrongly placed under surveillance and they
feel like outcasts among other citizens.
They know they have nothing to reproach to themselves, and are law
abiding citizens. They were shocked when they realized that they have
been placed under surveillance.
After the first shock because you are really an innocent person,
you try to understand what has happened.
You are right to be upset but not full of hatred. You are upset with the
person who has profiled you, government, secret services. You wonder
what is going on and you want to understand.
You also want to do everything to clear your name. Most importantly,
you do not want to be associated with those things. You hate that you
are under surveillance, your privacy is under the spot, but you are not
full of hatred, just really upset.
As you have been downgraded as a second class citizen, you want to
protest. Those that have been wrongly put under surveillance often
refuse to take part in any electoral voting system especially during a
general election.
Some only vote during local or mayoral elections.
Really they do not feel connected to the society as they did in the past.
Most are withdrawn and find it difficult to connect with others.
During that time, they try to fix the problem on their own ways by writing
to their Councillors, Member of Parliament (MP)
and the police.
However, those steps are not the best steps to deal with the matter.
Those steps are just to explore the unknown.
Moreover, after those unsuccessful attempts, one begins to feel really
helpless and will try to live with it. At this stage
one becomes really defensive because one does not trust anyone
anymore.
Nevertheless, all those efforts are helping one to feel better. That is all.
Quite often, people do not know that there is
another option.

bending the truth.

Just adopt the mindset of a private detective.
