Saying Privacy Is 'Off the Table,' NYC Police Commissioner Demands More Surveillance Cameras
Found on Reason on Friday, 26 April 2013
From the Department of Never Let a Serious Crisis Go to Waste comes word that New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly thinks that now is a great time to install even more surveillance cameras hither and yon around the Big Apple.
Of course, what Kelly wants is public cameras — specifically, an expanded network of police-controlled "smart" cameras watching the city and responding automatically to perceived dangers.
However if you record the police you get into trouble and arrested for filming officers. Sounds very fair and reasonable.
