‘Big Brother’ fears over SNP database for millions of Scots
A NEW “super ID database” is being planned by SNP ministers which would be shared among government bodies, it has emerged.
It could be used to keep a record of information including whether a person has been treated for cancer, to if they have signed up for membership of Edinburgh’s Royal Botanic Gardens.
Opposition parties have voiced “Big Brother” concerns that it is an “intrusive” tool which will increase the “over-mighty power of the state”.
