- Description
A man at a computer, the cable for which is labelled 'New spy laws', wonders 'Why do I feel as if my formula for privacy is being contaminated?' The cartoonist posts a 'dirty pipe!' warning on the cable.
Accompanying note from cartoonist states: 'The loss of privacy occasioned by the new spy laws will damage our society far more than any botulism scare. The cartoon asks a question as if from the cartoonist [or anyone] sitting at a computer. The cartoon addresses the current fear of loss of privacy. It uses the metaphor of "a dirty pipe" said to be the cause of the botulism scare affecting exports by Fonterra.'
The concern over the possibility of botulism outbreak caused by a dirty pipe in one of Fonterra's milk plants coincided with the passing of the GCSB Amendment Bill, which legalised electronic surveillance on New Zealand citizens.
