"In the 1970s, as East Germany sought international respectability, the Stasi’s violent methods gave way to “soft” ones—primarily surveillance and “psychic demolition.” Sowing an atmosphere of paranoia, agents opened mail, tapped phones, bugged homes and secretly filmed suspects. By 1989, the eve of its dissolution, the Stasi had 91,000 full-time employees and a network of 189,000 informers, motivated by patriotism, ambition, money or fear. Its grim, bureaucratic legacy was a mind-numbing 39 million file cards, 1.4 million photographs, and 34,000 film and sound documents."That's nothing compared to NSA's database.
