    I think the most egregious one to me was the stasi listening post that said they listened in to every 3rd person or something along those lines. this was post snowden, so by objective metrics that seemed a lot better than the allied NSA listening in to 100% of everything lol

      Yeah they went into details about how horrible the prisons were in the 50's (so... jail cells full of nazis, boo hoo) and how they only got slightly better from the mid 60's onwards. What you saw from then on was miles better than any contemporary western jail cell.
