Abstract

Edward  Snowden’s  revelations  in  June  2013  prompted  major  debates  around  the  topics  of  privacy, national  security,  and  mass  digital  surveillance.   Within  these  debates,  the  British  government  and  its  intelligence  agencies  regularly  invoke  British
public  opinion  as:
a) desiring  greater security,  and;
b) probably  being  prepared  to  give  up  privacy  to  enhance  security.

Others  recognise  that  while  the  public  want  more  security,  they  don’t  want  to  sacrifice  their  privacy.

However,  what  does  the  public  actually  think  on  privacy , security,  and  the  Snowden leaks?  Is  the public  prepared  to  give  up  privacy  for  security?
