The UK has cameras most everywhere and their crime rate is way up. The government has also reduced funding for police so that has a lot to do with it. The cameras don't deter anything.

Because our population is so large, and constantly growing, we have to increasingly rely on forensic technology in combating crime. Fingerprints, blood types and DNA are examples of past methods of determining who perpetrated crimes.

Omnipresent cameras and face recognition technology are just the next wave. They're already in broad use and will be refined just as older methods have been.

They're a direct consequence of our modern lifestyles. If we all still lived in insular villages of several hundred people where everyone knew everybody else, we might not need technology. However, we now live in mega cities and towns where it's easy for perps to disappear. Forensic technology levels the playing field for the innocent.

Are you Joel's half brother from an incestuous cross species relationship?


Come on, you don't see the possibility of abuse with excrement like this?

that would be a huge crime deterrent,


They still haven't caught the robbers caught on camera multiple times in the Capital One on Coursey weeks ago.

Does it? Or does it give the state too much of an advantage? I don't trust that there are "processes in place to insure" against abuse. Yeah, those processes tend to be abused like FISA has and are only in place until they become inconvenient for he state. Better to not even start especially in residential areas

Honestly, at any moment you can have a camera on you. Between cell phones, businesses and residential homes having cameras, etc.. So it really wouldn't bother me. Of course, if I wanted to engage in illegal behavior I might have a different opinion, but depending on what I was doing. It could be worth adapting the operation to having the cameras.. Because just knowing the cameras are up will modify behavior, especially those who might be considering doing harm to another person.

Not in middle/upper middle class neighborhoods though


A lot of upper/middle class neighborhoods have cameras posted at all entrances to catch who comes in and leaves. Coupled with the influx of camera doorbells in recent years and I’d say you’re still more likely to be ON camera in these areas than not.

Yes. NOPD already essentially does this.


I live in N.O. and see these cameras all over the place since they have these LED red and blue lights on 24/7 that lets everyone know there are surveillance cameras in the area. Kind of stupid to show the criminals exactly where the cameras are.
