In terms of dystopian government overreach or crime rate? Because the crime rate is surely not the worst. The overreach tho is pretty bad. They constantly try to break encryption, they try to force people to ID themselves for online services, incarcerate peaceful protesters for years, etc.
Assange is a great example of how fucking horrible their government can be.
