I'm only going by the image I get from the news and tv shows. They give a very restricted impression, controlling what people can say etc. The nipplegate is one good example - it takes a very conservative society to even begin to worry about such minor details. It is fully possible that I have a completely wrong impression on many things. You only need to think about visiting your country and immediately you get hit with a host of limitations and lack of rights, for example your memory sticks and computer contents may get scanned through at the airport even if you're not a suspected felon. One simple but very invasive example where you guys lack the right for privacy.
The only reason why your memory sticks or computer is even scanned at the airport is because they're looking for any kind of explosive device I'm pretty sure that's the way all airports are all over the world now since 9/11, our mainstream media is very biased to one political side only a couple news stations actually take on all the hard questions which all news media should be doing. that's all I'm going to say on that topic here. I just don't want to get in trouble lol
