• The privacy commissioner is asking a judge to order the RCMP to remove their video surveillance cameras from streets. - CBC

    thot about turning this into a poll. How do people feel about video cameras operated by the police (Mounties, FBI/NSA, etc.) in public places?
    A related question is that if you are in public it is possible you are being watched anyway, so what difference is there if a camera does it?
    Are privacy questions valid, or are they merely invoking the slippery slope fallacy?


  • I don’t want the government watching me. Big Brother, 'nuff said.


  • Well, it would help reduce and solve crime, but is it worth the cost of our freedoms? I don’t know as I have no ideas what the provisions are (no cameras in public restrooms, okay?).


  • streets are public property, and if certain areas have a lot of crimes, cameras don’t hurt.

    Just don’t have cameras in the house.

    1984 was the best book eva! who’s with me?


  • i did prefer Animal Farm - with all those cute lil animals . . . .
