That's a great topic, in fact I agree that no government should use shills or intimidation tactics such as *ahem* saving all internet communication *ahem* in order to make the public thought government-compliant. Here are some more cases of government-sponsored opinion manipulation:

USA, Canada: http://www.naturalnews.com/042093_in...vernment.html#
surprise, China: http://qz.com/311832/hacked-emails-r...ganda-machine/
Bahrain: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/bahrain-pr-...ger-m-c-377063
Egypt: http://www.worldpress.org/mideast/3638.cfm

It goes against all demands of government transparency since these shills are not visibly acting in the name of the government, yet propagate only the government's agenda, unacceptable.
There was also this government that we keep selling weapons to that uses armed thugs in the streets to intimidate the people to follow its backwards agenda, what was it again, oh yeah:

Also a way to keep public opinion in check.
Maybe we should invade them now before we have sold them our most modern weapon systems and it becomes even more painful.

So which countries can we trust not to be undermined or evil who can invade all the nasty manipulative ones and turn them into good democracies?
Norway, Denmark and Finland?
