I'm currently reading a book on political policing in the XVIII Russia and OMG — none of it was invented in Pooteen's time, none of it was invented in USSR even, there is a way longer history of this: most proof — either unreliable eyewitness accounts or confessions given under torture, people reporting on each other due to personal conflicts, taking families hostage to force the prosecuted to out of hiding — "traditional values", all the same, but without gadgets and surveillance 😱
