This website has tirelessly documented the pretext to make foreign troops an everyday sight on US and UK streets as a torchbearer of the panopticon prison state.

The World Cup has been called a 'mega-surveillance project' - every single ticket sold has an RFID tracking trip that transmits its location around the clock. To purchase one, you have to provide your passport number and date of birth, which is then scanned and checked at the turnstile.
