This is very impressive work. As Robin Meyer-Lucht says, why don’t we see more such use of videos by professional news organizations?
But I also think the narrator comes close to demagoguery here. For example, the EU data retention directive, which is targeted in the first part, is restricted to traffic data. That can be bad enough in itself, but does not mean that data on which web pages you visited will be potentially available to the police. That’s a difference, and a very important one. The video also moves seamlessly from that directive to the German BKA law about online surveillance, which is not exactly the same. Activists should get their facts right as well. There’s a discussion about this over at Spreeblick.
To be fair, the Du bist Terrorist website does have links to media stories where the facts are presented correctly.
