You're living your life under the assumption you're not being filmed or photographed
That's a stretch. Once you step out in public or open your curtains, you are not entitled to any privacy. Besides, isn't the UK the place with all those government CCTV cameras?
I'd be more worried about the use of answers for security questions and birth dates than passwords. In some cases we are talking about names, birth dates, addresses and credit card info. This has long-term potential for identify theft.
And it's that blind faith to rules and procedure that let 9/11 happen. Recall that the box cutters used by the 9/11 terrorists were not a banned item at that time.
I second that. Since buying my 46" flat panel TV in January, my desire to go see movies at the theatre has diminished. I'll go to a movie with my wife or kids for once-in-a-blue-moon night out, but my TV and audio system are more than adequate.
The movie studios are crazy if they think I'm going to pay $30 for a rental.
It is total bullshit. Had a small multi-tool removed from checked baggage. The TSA website clearly says it is allowed in checked baggage. But upon arriving at Disney World, it was missing.
I remember when I subscribed to Musicmatch Radio. I was listening to all sorts of new music. Ended up buying plenty of music from what I heard.
Then regional licensing reared it's ugly head and Musicmatch notified that my subscription would not be renewed due to licensing restrictions. There was no comparable service in Canada at the time. So I stopped listening to music via the internet. I bought way less music.
Another example of the government doing policing for the private sector. Everyone knows that Brick & Mortar casinos were behind the ban on online gambling. They have plenty to lose if people could gamble in the comfort of their home.

(1) Macaroni and cheese.
(2) Pasta and pasta sauces.
So long as Mr. Clapson doesn't use macaroni and cheese, and pasta and pasta sauces in his class, he should be good to go.
Bad PR move on the part of Kraft.
