Having experienced most of these things, I totally agree with the article.
The whole premise of stricter laws equals better security is false. These just enable the police to harass the people more.
Yes US has its share of idiotic/draconian(or whatever) laws in the name of security. It doesn't mean India should have the same moronic laws. The difference is that privacy is taken pretty seriously in the US while in India people by and large have no sense of respect towards an individual's privacy.
