It's trite and flippant, but one response I have to public officials doing this is, "you first".
When I can know where my Congresscritters are at every moment, every time they cross a camera's path. Who visits them, in public and in private. What shows they watch -- and their children and grandchildren.
Same goes for our tech lords.
You first.
- origami777 9y agoThat’d be cool if citizens just did this to make a point. Could the cameras be small or discrete enough to install in several places in DC, so that even politicians walk by a website is updated? There has to be enough video training footage for them in the public. What’s the legality of this?
- mulmen 9y agoRegardless of legality have fun explaining it to the Secret Service.
- origami777 9y agoYeah I wonder what they could do, if anything. Especially if it was on private property with owners consent. It’ll never happen but fun to think about.

Even if individuals just posted footage from their properties and some DAO actually did the aggregation, image processing, and posting, I bet any individuals connected to the effort would still get harassed by law enforcement.
