While it is not a popular opinion here, becoming a JW is a voluntary association. The government in power where we live is not a voluntary association. "Big Brother" is a reference to governmental power derived from the novel 1984. It doesn't fit Jehovah's Witnesses.
Probably a more accurate description of Witness practice is that it is intrusive and high control.
You didn't need me to be pedantic, did you? But I couldn't resist.

I would not like my choice of associates to be regulated by law. Is disfellowshipping painful? I see that it is. Do I want to be forced to speak to a disfellowshiped pedophile because a judge says I must? No. Not now. Not ever. One's choice of associates, no matter what drives it, should be beyond a judge's purview.
do you support the death penalty or do you think the worst punishment should be incarceration?.

I support the death penalty.

(and yes i can carry a tune).
Persecution? No. Ineffective? Probably.
